LinenLinen is a fabric woven from yarns that are made from the fibres of the flax plant. This fabric is used for beddings, clothing and table coverings. Linen has been used in different cultures for hundreds of years. Light garments like shirts, lingerie and chemises were also known as linen. The cultivating techniques and harvesting methods of the flax determine the quality of the finished linen product. The flax fibres are loosened by natural and chemical retting methods which decompose the binding pectin. When linen is made from flax by hand, the wooden portion of the stalk is removed by scutching, after which the fibres are separated and processed. The linen making process can also be done by machinery. Available in shades of ivory, grey or tan, the linen fabric is known for its high lustre. Strong bleaching is done to produce pure white linen. This fabric is naturally stiff and crisp but could be made soft and smooth as well. Linen is capable of absorbing and losing water quickly. Linen fabric does not stretch easily and does not get damaged by abrasion. Garments made from linen are strong and durable. Bed linen is available in the UK market in a variety of textures, sizes and colours. You can choose exclusive table linen to provide a touch of elegance to your dining table. |
