Beauty of Linen

Warm In Winter

Linen is an elegant, tactile, sustainable, long-lasting natural fibre. Kind to the skin, it's cooling in summer, and warms you up when it‘s cold.
​Naturally antibacterial, linen allows skin to breathe. It does not cause allergic reaction.Linen is strong (about two to three times stronger than cotton). It is wear-resistant, and even absorbs humidity.
We use different weights and thicknesses of linen, which means that there is always a garment perfect for English weather, either on its own or part of a layer.
Each artisan product listing includes a "Linen Quality" section, so you know the weight of the fabric used.

Easy To Care

Linen can be washed in a washing machine (but check the instructions!) and may be dry cleaned if you wish. Part of the beauty of linen is that washing makes it softer. When dry, we think the wrinkles add to the
unique natural beauty of the fabric, but you can iron them smooth for a more refined look. To best protect the garment, we would advise you to iron from the inside.
