Linen & Cotton Care

Linen and cotton are natural fibres valued for their breathability, durability, and relaxed character. With the right care, they age beautifully, becoming softer and more comfortable over time.

Washing

  • Wash at low to moderate temperatures (30–40°C)

  • Use gentle detergents

  • Wash similar colours together

  • Avoid bleach, which weakens fibres

Drying

  • Air drying is preferable

  • If tumble drying, use a low heat and remove promptly

  • Avoid over-drying to prevent stiffness

Ironing

  • Iron while slightly damp for best results

  • Use a medium to high heat suitable for natural fibres

What to Expect

Creasing is a natural feature of linen and part of its appeal. Slight variations in texture and colour are normal and reflect the fibre’s natural origins.
