Know before you buy
The stone-washing process softens the natural fibers of the linen, giving it a relaxed, lived-in texture that feels supple rather than stiff. It creates a matte, weathered appearance that is soft to the touch while maintaining the inherent strength of the fabric.
To maintain the integrity of the fabric and the hand-sewn details, this runner should be hand-washed. Avoid harsh detergents and allow it to air dry to preserve the natural texture and longevity of the linen.
Because each runner is individually hand-sewn and stone-washed, there will be subtle natural variations in the fabric's texture and color. These unique characteristics are intentional and mean that no two pieces are exactly identical.
High-quality Italian linen is designed to age beautifully. With regular use and proper care, the fabric will become even softer and develop a more relaxed drape, enhancing its artisanal charm.
The Tela Linen Runner measures 21 inches in width and 62 inches in length. It is sized to provide a balanced look on most standard dining tables.
