FAQs

Antique French linens were traditionally hand-woven from locally grown flax by skilled artisans, often forming an essential part of a brides dowry during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

These pieces were crafted from pure vegetable flax fibres, hand-spun and tightly woven to create durable fabric, then embellished with hand-stitched embroidery and delicate drawn-thread work.

Authentic antique linens typically feature natural slubs in the heavier weave, hand-embroidered monograms or floral motifs, and seamless construction or hand-sewn joining seams.

Layering crisp white antique textiles with modern neutral bedding introduces organic texture and a relaxed, lived-in elegance to contemporary bedrooms.

Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild, chemical-free detergent, and line dry in the shade to preserve the integrity of the aged fibres and delicate embroidery.
