A highly structural and visually compelling 100% pure linen fabric that utilizes a specialized dobby weave to create the rich, dimensional appearance of a classic basket weave. This textile achieves its distinctive depth and texture through a beautiful contrasting yarn arrangement: the warp features a bright, bleached white 9s linen yarn, while the weft is woven with an unbleached, natural flax-colored 9s linen yarn. This precise combination yields a striking two-tone, heathered effect that highlights the fabric's organic character.
Woven and expertly finished in South Korea utilizing premium raw flax sourced from North-East Europe, this substantial material offers outstanding durability and architectural drape.
Weighing in at 284 g/sqm (8.37 oz/sqyd) across a 44-inch width, it sits comfortably in the medium-to-heavy weight category, providing excellent stability with zero elasticity. Despite its robust weight, the fabric undergoes a thorough pre-washing process during finishing, ensuring it arrives with a beautifully soft, approachable handfeel right off the bolt without any stiff or crisp resistance.
