100% PURE FLAX LINEN Naturally hygienic and antibacterial, linen’s use in bread bags spans centuries. Long before the mass production of breads shrouded in moisture-holding and mold-inducing plastic, families used linen to keep their bread crust crisp and the bread interior soft and crumbly. EXTRA TIPS FOR FRESHNESS Cut into your loaf about a third of the way and work toward the ends. After removing your slices, place cut ends together. Now snugly wrap the bread around your loaf. OR…Cut the end off the bread and place the cut side down on a small wooden cutting board. Slip it into your linen bag wrapping snugly around the loaf. OR…If you live in a dry climate or air-conditioned home, try wrapping your bread in parchment. Place it in the bottom of the bag and snugly wrap the bread around your loaf. THE PRINCIPLE A Linen Bread Bag keeps your bread fresh on the principle that linen absorbs moisture and releases it back into the bread. QUALITY YOU CAN COUNT ON This 100% linen bag is constructed of first quality heavyweight European linen. It has a drawstring closure and lovely French seams. Since linen shrinks a lot, we have prewashed the fabric prior to construction and taken the loss so you don’t have to. SIZES When you make your selection, the following sizes are for comparison purposes: The large measures approximately 13 x 18, the medium measures approximately 13 x 15 inches, and the baguette measures approximately 7 x 25. Launder as necessary. The linen will become softer over time. The wrinkles are part of the charm! ORDER FULFILLMENT We fulfill and ship orders daily on business days.
