Meanings

  1. 1
    wet towel (supplied at table); hot, moistened hand towelnoun

JMdict 1001910

In a sentence

おしぼりwet towelをどうぞhere you go

Here's a wet towel

How it works

を (object) marks おしぼり (wet towel) as the thing being handed over, but the verb is left out entirely — どうぞ (here you go) carries the whole act of offering. Japanese often drops the obvious verb like this when you're simply presenting something to someone.
