THE EDGES
All four sides are left to fray into a soft fringe — but not left to their own devices. A row of decorative stitching runs just inside the fringe line, which stops the fraying at exactly the depth I intended and holds it there. It won't creep further with washing.
That stitch is the only detail on the napkin, and it's meant to be seen.

WHICH SIZE
40 × 40 cm (16" × 16") — everyday lunches, breakfast, casual dinners
45 × 45 cm (18" × 18") — the classic dinner size. If you're unsure, this is the one
50 × 50 cm (20" × 20") — formal dinners and weddings, generous enough to drape over a lap properly
Need a different size, or a large quantity for an event? Message me. I cut every piece myself.

FABRIC
100% linen, 200 g/m² — heavier than shirting linen, with the weight to hang properly over a table edge instead of curling.
Woven by Libeco in Flanders since 1858.
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, class II — tested for harmful substances
Belgian Linen™ — woven in Belgium, min. 85% EU flax
Masters of Linen® — field to cloth, entirely in Europe
Purveyor to the Belgian Royal Court since 2006
CO2-neutral since 2014
"Belgian flax" and "European flax" tell you where the plant grew — not where the cloth was woven. Belgian Linen™ guarantees both.
Pre-shrunk and mechanically softened, so it won't shrink after washing. Fully biodegradable at the end of its life.

WHO THEY'RE FOR
Anyone replacing paper napkins for good. These wash hundreds of times and get softer with every one — the arithmetic works out quickly.
Hosts who set a table properly: Sunday lunches, holidays, dinner parties.
Weddings and events — order as many sets of the 50 cm size as you need, and linen photographs far better than polyester. For large quantities, message me first.
And as a gift: a housewarming, a wedding, a Christmas table. It's the kind of thing people don't buy for themselves and then use for a decade.

CARE
Machine wash cool, no bleach, dry naturally. Iron on the reverse while slightly damp if you want it crisp — or don't, and let it crease.
Pre-shrunk, so it holds its size. It softens with every wash.
