To preserve the natural beauty and craftsmanship of your 100% linen garment, we recommend the following:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold or lukewarm water (max 30°C), using mild detergent.
- Turn inside out before washing to protect the embroidery.
- Air dry flat or on a hanger away from direct sunlight.
- If needed, tumble dry on low and remove while slightly damp to avoid creasing.
- For a crisp finish, iron or steam inside out on medium to high heat while the fabric is still slightly damp.
- Do not bleach.
With proper care, your piece will soften with time and wear—becoming even more beautiful, just like the heritage it carries.
