Linen Love: What are the benefits and why you'll love it..

Linen has been the favourable choice of fabric in many countries for centuries due to its breathable nature, durability and even its health benefits! We go between the (linen) sheets to understand why linen bedding has become so popular.

Year round goodness

Linen is known for its excellent breathability and insulating properties. It's often associated with warm climates but in fact it has the ability to keep you cool in summer and warm (insulated) in the cooler months if you choose the correct quality linen. Amurelle Breeze Linen is made with this in mind and the weight and quality reflects this - the hollow fibres used to make our bedding is not too lightweight and not too dense.

What's more, if you tend to sweat in your sleep, not a nice topic but a reality for many, linen bedding will help combat this due to its breathable nature and natural moisture wicking properties.

Kind to your skin

Linen is the ideal choice for those that have sensitive skin or find they are easily irritated by some fabrics such as artificially produced polyester or cotton/polyester mixes.

Due to its 100% natural composition, linen is hypo-allergenic and therefore kind to even the most sensitive skin.

Super soft

Invest your money in the right linen bedding and you'll feel like you're sleeping in the fluffiest clouds know to man! Amurelle linen bedding is made form the finest calibre 100% certified French flax plants by the most expert Portuguese makers so you can be confident in the knowledge that you're sleeping in the best of the best.

All of our linen bedding is garment washed to ensure it is super soft when you receive it and only gets softer with every wash.

Sustainable & stands the test of time

Sustainability is one of our core values at Amurelle and we love to educate our customers on this topic and its one of the reasons we chose linen bedding to be part of our core range.

Linen is one of the world's oldest materials and is also one of the most durable fabrics available, therefore your Breeze Linen bedding will last for a very long time. It is an investment that we believe pays off as you won't need to replace it for many years. It is also fully biodegradable so once it has come to the end of its life you won't have to worry about it ending up in landfill!

In addition, all our linen is made from 100% certified French flax which means that it is produced from plants that require fewer pesticides, irrigation and energy to grow. The flax plant requires one-fifth of the fertilisers and pesticides to successfully grow than most other fibres.

Saves time, looks great

Linen bedding has a naturally laid-back look and therefore requires minimum effort to make your bed look great. No more faffing about tucking, smoothing and adjusting - linen bedding has that perfect 'undone' look that always looks stylish and effortless. Super soft, saves time and looks good, what more could you want from your bedding?
