Linen - natural and organic clothing

Common flax is a plant that grows easily in temperate climates but also adapts to more rigid and cold climates. Flax is one of the first plants to have been cultivated by man and does not require major interventions for its production; for this reason it is considered an ecological and eco-sustainable crop. From flax seeds we obtain both oil and flour used in the food sector, in cosmetics and in construction. From the flax stem we obtain the fiber that has a cool and slippery hand.

Linen is a very ancient fabric, the first findings date back to 8000 BC, and it was very widespread as demonstrated by the various findings. Linen fiber is very resistant and durable but also soft and flexible and therefore is very valuable. The production of linen fiber is considered environmentally friendly but not very profitable, for this reason it was supplanted by cotton.

Linen is an exceptional natural fiber for the summer for the wonderful sensation of freshness that it can give. The fabric, breathable, thermoregulating and hygroscopic, absorbs and releases humidity very well, keeping the skin dry. By its nature, the fibers are elastic and the fabric softens, making it extremely pleasant on the skin. The classic crumpled effect is its characteristic and this makes it beautiful.

Linen fiber still retains the ancient charm of its long history and has no rivals in contact with the skin during the summer months. Linen resists washing well and the fabric seems to improve its quality over time.
