A substantial 100% pure linen fabric in Pale Slate Blue, a muted greyish-blue tone with cool, balanced undertones. Woven in an open, balanced 2:2 mat weave (basketweave) using thick 5s linen yarns in both warp and weft, it presents a distinct geometric grid texture and visible natural slub character.
Weighing 313 g/sqm (9.22 oz/sqyd), it sits firmly in the heavyweight class, providing complete opacity, dependable structural body, and a clean silhouette. The fabric has been pre-washed to relax the coarse 5s yarns, giving it a broken-in, pliable hand directly off the bolt without compromising durability. It is suited for utility jackets, chore coats, workwear trousers, heavy tote bags, and interior upholstery projects like cushions and slipcovers.
