What is a linen blanket?
The raw material is obtained from the stem of flax, a valuable crop. After harvesting, the plant is processed: soaked, dried, kneaded, ruffled and combed. As a result, thin fibers are obtained. The production process is quite time-consuming and costly.
Flax can be grayish in color from light to dark shade. The material resembles cotton, but it is 3-5 times stronger and not as elastic. Linen fiber is shiny, flexible and soft. For the manufacturing of blankets, linen is pressed by the needle-punched method. The material is completely eco-friendly and safe, since a minimum amount of pesticides is required to grow an unpretentious crop. Tintory blanket is considered a novelty in the textile market, but it has already earned the recognition of consumers and is considered elite.
