Josephine Interiors Hemstitch Linen Napkins

Because they are crafted from 100% pure linen, these napkins are designed to soften significantly with every wash. While they may feel crisp initially, they will become increasingly supple and absorbent the more you use and launder them.

Yes, they are machine washable. We recommend washing them in cold water and tumble drying on a low setting. To maintain that crisp, elegant look, you can use a high-heat iron after drying.

Each napkin in the set is a perfect square measuring 18 inches by 18 inches, which is a standard, versatile size for both casual place settings and more formal dinner arrangements.

No, you should avoid using bleach on these napkins. Bleach can damage the natural linen fibers and compromise the delicate hemstitch detailing. For stubborn stains, it is better to use a gentle, linen-safe stain remover.

Yes, the hemstitch is integrated into the durable construction of the napkin. As long as you follow the care instructions—specifically avoiding bleach and using appropriate iron settings—the detailing is designed to remain intact and elegant through years of use.
