Tuscany linen – Maximum attention to detail and careful selection of materials, are the two values that guide the company LINO UNA PASSIONE, in Tuscany, in the production of home linen.
The two sisters, work together to offer a customizable tuscany linen product, precious but sober, made out with sophisticated materials and workmanship.
Their workshop of Viareggio in Tuscany is a private home that welcomes interested appointment only maintaining the privacy and exclusivity of the precious goods.
Inside, set in everyday, beautiful furnishings textiles born from the same workshop: the pieces of the collection, all unique, linen and hemp blend with antique lace, embroidery stitch old and counted thread.
Everything is extremely artisanal, hand embroidered personally by the two women, who tell their job with passion, the silent, patient waiting, curiosity and careful observation of the material, the enthusiasm of the result, when there is, and regularly THERE IS! And in any case compare themselves with the gap between subject thought and object made.
The tuscany linen creations are embellished by playing on contrasts between the thickness of the linen and the refinement of lace and fringe work, creating glimpses of light with inserts or bobbin tatting, with sfilature and plots.
“We are often offered old kits passed inheritance” tell “is a thrill to approach drawers and trunks!”
We feel a great shame in approaching things so intimate that speak of romantic dreams of young women not yet wives, fearing fantasies of old aunts and hands of nuns, who have designed a precious world.
But in the activity we only use materials not used, easy to be recognized by the large amount of “sarda”. We do not treat used linen, though beautiful.
Also we like to contrast the rustic beauty of the fabrics with linear designs in the name of practicality of maintenance: items that go in the washing machine for the most part and suitable for every type of furniture”.
Characterized by the natural colors of white, ivory, ecru, brown and gray, the linens used were woven with hand looms from the early twentieth century until the seventies. They are natural, healthy, not colored in line with the respect for the health and enhancement of the Tuscan territory and its resources and traditions.
