Know before you buy
Yes, these 100% linen napkins are machine washable. We recommend washing them in cool water on a gentle cycle and either air drying or tumble drying on low to maintain their soft, pre-washed texture.
Linen naturally develops a slight texture after washing. If you prefer a crisp, formal look, a quick press with a warm iron is recommended, though many prefer the relaxed, lived-in aesthetic of the fabric as-is.
The pre-washing process softens the linen fibers immediately, providing a comfortable, heirloom feel right out of the box. This process also helps stabilize the fabric, making it less prone to shrinking during future washes.
Mitered corners are a hallmark of high-quality textile craftsmanship. This technique creates a clean, diagonal seam at the corners, allowing the napkin to lay perfectly flat and providing a more polished, professional finish than a standard folded hem.
Yes, the 17” x 17” dimensions are standard for a dinner napkin, providing ample coverage for lap use. They strike a balance between being substantial enough for formal dining and versatile enough for casual everyday meals.
