Caring for linen so it lasts

Wash cool, dry flat and never iron it smooth: why linen gets better the more you use it.

Start with what you love

The best pieces are the ones you use every day. Think about where they will live: on the table, a shelf, by the bed.

Look at the details

The weight of a glass, the glaze on a vase and the weave of a cloth change how a piece feels far more than its price does.

• Group pieces in threes, at three heights.
• Repeat one material across a room.
• Leave space around what you love.

Live with it first

Use it for a week. If it is not right, send it back unused within thirty days.

Buy fewer pieces, and use them every day.
