Frequently asked questions

Linen is a natural plant fiber extracted from the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum). It is one of the oldest textile materials in the world and is known for its extraordinary durability, natural breathability, and antibacterial properties. Linen fibers are stronger than cotton and become softer and more beautiful with each wash.

Linen and cotton are both natural fibers, but they differ in several ways. Linen is naturally antibacterial and temperature-regulating — it keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter. It is also more durable than cotton and requires far less water and pesticides to produce. Cotton is generally softer from the start, but linen surpasses cotton in softness after a few washes and lasts many years longer.

Yes — this is one of linen's most beloved qualities. Unlike many other materials that wear out and lose shape, linen fibers become softer and more enveloping with each wash. A linen product from Lucevii is therefore an investment that improves over time.

Wash linen textiles at a maximum of 40°C on a delicate cycle. Avoid bleach and use a mild detergent.
