Luella Linen

I’ve always preferred natural products in the home. Much of the cotton in the bedding market has been heavily sprayed with pesticides, whereas linen is far more ecological. The reasons to love pure linen as a fabric choice for sheets, duvet covers and pillowcases is because, not only do they feel very soft, light and luxurious, they also offer a number of health benefits. Due to the thickness of the flax fibres, the number of threads within its weave cannot be as high as those of finer Eygptian cottons, but the strength of linen is far superior to most cottons. Linen fabric is naturally moisture absorbing and has the ability to trap air to keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Linen is widely regarded as one of the most luxurious fabrics. An endearing characteristic of linen is that it becomes softer and more desirable over time, the more it is washed.
