Note: Fresh linen is stiff and wrinkles appear harsher. We do not use "stone-washed" linen (a process that can expedite the decomposition of your fabric). It is new and ready to be broken in by you. Worn linen eventually takes on a buttery-soft feel and more relaxed appearance, where wrinkles blend in to an enriched texture. If you would like to freshen it up again, simple wash, hang dry, and iron. Or go the extra mile and starch it like twas done in yore.
