Our original French linen was woven and ennobled in France.
This is to keep the nobility of the materials we use natural pigments from the leaf pastel and madder root to decline an unusual range of table linen and office.
Notre lin d’origine française a été tissé et ennobli dans la France .
C’est pour garder la noblesse de ces matières que nous utilisons des pigments naturels provenant de la feuille de pastel et de la racine de garance pour décliner une gamme insolite de linge de table et d’office.
A product "green" in nature
Natural fiber, renewable, recyclable and biodegradable, the cultivation of flax is one of the world's greenest.
Linen is a fabric legendary, poetic, magical. Creation of Gods or Goddesses as people it is the oldest fabric in the world.
His story takes place in Egypt in the fourth millennium BC where the Nile Valley was the cradle of linen weaving.
The use of linen dates back to ancient times; it was the first known textile fibre in the world, with the earliest traces of its use dating back to 8000 BC. Linen has also been discovered in Egyptian tombs wrapped around the mummified bodies of pharaohs, it was seen as a symbol of light and purity, and a display of wealth.
Linen is highly absorbent and a good conductor of heat, keeping the body cool when worn in hot climates. It has a smooth, lustrous surface with a natural resistance to dirt and staining and is the strongest of the vegetable fibers, with two to three times the strength of cotton.
Linen fabrics have a high natural lustre, with the ability to absorb and lose water rapidly, gaining up to 20% moisture content without feeling damp. The natural look of linen cloth is an elegant choice for casual wear, warm weather, weekends and holidays.
