The Lure of Linen

New arrival de Le Cuona works with the finest artists, spinners and specialist mills to reinvent the beauty of linen. This hand-dyed and washed ‘Kasbah’ fabric is a good example of its meticulous attention to detail: these textiles feel as good as they look, so they are well worth seeking out in person at the new showroom. “Tactility is so important to us; it sets us apart,” says founder Bernie de Le Cuona. “Sometimes I want the handle to be dry, sometimes really creamy, and you have to do a lot of testing to achieve something that’s just right. It takes a lot of craftsmen and skills to put it all together.”
