Essence of Linen (Essence Books) - Hardcover

Another delightful gift book packed with novel decorating ideas, Essence of Linen traces the story of linen from flax-sown field to the living, eating, sleeping, and bathing areas of the twenty-first-century home. Valued for its strength and sheen, its durability and coolness to the touch, linen has hardly ever been out of fashion. Hilary Mandleberg shows that linen -- in chic white, colored checks, or finest figured damasks -- finds a happy home in any environment.
