Blankets

Linen blankets work best as a top layer for warm-weather sleep, as a mid-layer for spring and fall, or as a sofa throw year-round. They are lighter than quilts and more breathable than wool throws — ideal for warm bedrooms, hot sleepers, or layering over heavier bedding when you want airflow.

Linen fibers are naturally hollow and breathable — air moves through them more easily than through cotton, which helps disperse body heat rather than trap it. Linen also wicks moisture away from skin and dries faster than cotton, keeping night sweats manageable. Hot sleepers and warm bedrooms benefit the most.

No. Quince linen is stone-washed before it ships, which softens the fiber and removes the stiffness of fresh-from-the-loom linen. Pieces feel soft from the first use, and linen continues to soften with every wash for years.

Machine wash cold or warm on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Skip fabric softener and bleach. Tumble dry on low and pull the piece out while slightly damp to preserve the natural texture and avoid over-drying. Hang drying works well in warm weather.

Throw sizes are designed to drape across a sofa or footboard. Bed-size linen blankets are sized to fit standard Twin, Full/Queen, and King mattresses. Each product page lists exact dimensions.

European linen — particularly flax grown in France, Belgium, and the Netherlands — is widely considered the finest in the world. The climate produces long, fine flax fibers with a natural luster and consistent quality. European-grown flax is also processed in Europe, often with the Masters of Linen certification that traces the chain from field to finished textile.
