Quality information:

Lara is our most popular linen base. This linen has a heavy antique wash applied giving it a textured and relaxed look. The wash also makes the linen very soft with a beautiful drape. It is a simple plain weave and solid dyed.

This fabric is solid dyed and each colour in the range is developed and milled exclusively for us.

This quality will soften increasingly with wash and wear - like all linen it gets better with time…
