favourite people

linen

birthday gift

my new favourite indulgence

i L O V E it!

did you know???

linen comes from the flax plant

and is perhaps the oldest fabric known

its history goes back many thousands of years

linen is renowned for its spectacular durability and long life

the strength of linen thread

is more than twice as high as that of cotton

and more than three times that of wool

highly absorbent and a good conductor of heat

linen fabric feels cool to the touch in summer

and

luxuriously warm in winter

the more linen is washed

the softer and smoother it becomes

linen has a smooth surface

and

a high natural lustre

and

feels lush

from

linen line
