Here at Eastern Accents, we love our linen! It's a staple of the industry and is regarded as one of the most high quality and beloved bedding choices. But why is it so popular?
Here, we're breaking down all things linen and what makes this natural fabric such a timeless choice.
What is linen?
Linen is one of the most luxurious bedding textiles. Often linen is associated with sheeting, but can be used in top-of-bed pieces as well.
Linen is a strong, lustrous yarn made from flax fiber. Being both durable and high quality, linen products are a great investment. At first touch, this fabric typically feels crisp– but linen actually becomes softer with washes and time!
