Why French Linen
French linen is woven from flax, one of the oldest and most respected textile fibers in the world. Naturally breathable and moisture regulating, linen creates the ideal environment for storing bread. Unlike plastic, which traps moisture and causes bread to sweat and mold, linen allows excess humidity to escape while preventing the loaf from drying out too quickly.
This balance helps maintain a crisp crust and tender interior, extending the life of artisanal bread naturally and without chemicals. It is the same method bakers have relied on for generations long before plastic ever existed.
A Healthier, Sustainable Choice
Linen is biodegradable, renewable, and requires significantly less water and fewer resources to produce than cotton or synthetic materials. Choosing linen over plastic reduces waste and supports a slower, more thoughtful approach to food storage and daily living.
Size & Use
Measuring 18 inches long and 16 inches wide, this bread bag is perfectly sized for artisanal loaves, rustic rounds, and sourdough boules. Generous proportions allow the bread to rest comfortably without compressing the crust.
Care Instructions
Caring for linen is simple and rewarding.
Hand wash in cool water and hang to dry. Linen naturally softens with use while remaining durable. If desired, iron on the reverse side only. Do not iron directly on the printed image.Designed to be used daily, loved deeply, and kept for years to come, this French linen bread bag brings together beauty, function, and tradition in one thoughtful essential.
