Linen....natural, pure, noble. It's a synonym of classical, time-less elegance. Nowadays, when we all try to create circumstances for a healthy lifestyle, linen cloth fulfills all of those demands and is a symbol of tradition, love for beauty and life in harmony with nature.

The essential properties of linen:

2. Comfort - Physiological characteristics of linen - pleasantly cool in high temperature while in winter it protects us from cold. Linen fibers have the highest absorbance (of all fibers), even after 20% water absorption it give the impression of dryness.
3. Health - Linen shows anti bacterial properties. It doesn't cause irritation or allergy, creates a very good microclimate for skin, it doesn't electrify itself and it's airy
4. Ecology - Linen cloth is fully biodegradable and waste-free. The fibers don't contain heavy metals and it's free from other harmful additions.

Care:
1. Washing - Linen cloth loves water and isn't afraid of high temperature. It can be washed in a washing machines, except for very delicate linen. In this case it should be gently hand washed. The ideal temperature of washing is 85 - 104 degrees F. Chlorine bleach must be avoided.
2. Drying - Tumble dryers are not recommended. It reduces linen's life and may cause permanent visible damage, difficult to iron out even mechanically.
3. Ironing - To avoid shiny effect linen should be ironed on the reverse side or through another material. If you don't wish to have an ironed finish, simply hang the washed cloth on hanger, next gently stretch the fabric. However if an immaculate outfit is required slightly dampen the material and iron it.

Following our advice, you can be sure that 100 percent linen will not pill and serve you for many years. Linen is the most durable fabric, it is resistant to high temperatures, sunlight and water.
