white cloths

Bleached textile pieces

White cloths are pieces of white fabric, typically used for cleaning, covering, or ceremonial purposes.

The color white suggests cleanliness or purity, making white cloths common in religious settings, formal dining, and medical contexts: The altar was draped with white cloths.

In household use, they're preferred for tasks where stains need to be visible or bleaching is routine.
