How to Care for Linen
By following these guidelines, your linen will stay soft, durable, and beautiful for years.
Washing
Machine Wash
Use a gentle cycle with lukewarm (below 40°C/104°F) water and mild detergent. Wash with similar colours and fabrics, avoiding heavy items like towels.
Hand Wash
Soak in lukewarm water with mild detergent. Gently swish; avoid twisting or scrubbing.
Bleach & Fabric Softener
AVOID! These weaken the fibres and can cause discolouration.
Drying
Air Dry
Lay flat or hang on a padded hanger. Avoid clothespins and high heat.
Tumble Dry
If necessary, use low heat (less than 55°C/130°F) for a gentle cycle.
Ironing
Steam
Iron on medium heat while slightly damp. For dark linens, press on the reverse side.
Wrinkling
Linen naturally wrinkles, which is part of its charm.
Stain Removal
Spot Clean
Dab stains with mild detergent or use a baking soda-vinegar mixture. Wash in cold water for stubborn stains.
Important Tips
Pre-Wash Shrinkage
Linen may shrink up to 10% after the first wash.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry, and airy place to avoid mold.
No Hot Water!
Hot water can cause shrinkage and fading.
