Bertozzi Bougainvillea Napkin

To preserve the integrity of the vegetable dyes and the linen fibers, we recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Air drying is best to maintain the fabric's natural texture, though a warm iron can be used while the linen is slightly damp to smooth out wrinkles.

Because these napkins use traditional vegetable dyes, you may notice a very subtle softening of the color over time, which is characteristic of natural dyeing processes. To minimize this, avoid harsh chemical bleaches and wash in cool water.
