Upholstery & Heavy Weight
Burnt Linen Char
Developed from a melange of yarns in three colors, natural flax, black and white this group of stonewashed textiles are a perennial favorite for upholstered goods and other soft furnishings. The yarns used in the weaving of this fabric are more rustic and overall give a warm comforting feel while remaining resilient and long lasting. Product can be washed repeatedly and with use the Linen will develop a lovely soft patina. Use individually or as a group this line is both understated and sophisticated and is a classic Belgian Linen.

Care & Cleaning
Textile can be washed. Cushion covers, towels, curtains etc can all be laundered very easily dependent on size and make-up. We recommend a warm water cycle with 1/2 the soap and an extra rinse. Use of a softer soap is recommended, one that is generally used for finer fabrics. Stains can be attended to locally but remember to rinse out all excess soap. These textiles can also be dry cleaned and spot cleaned effectively. While you can use a dryer, you will likely experience some shrinkage due to heat. We recommend a hang dry and an air or warm cycle in the dryer to soften the fabric.
Furniture should be vacuumed regularly and wiped with a moist cloth to clean the surface of dust.
