Flax tops represent a pure and authentic plant fiber<\/strong>, obtained from the stem of the flax plant(Linum usitatissimum<\/em>) and processed through an extraction and combing process that preserves its natural length and strength. Processing into tops yields a neat, stable and highly workable<\/strong> fiber that is ideal for spinning, weaving and fiber art techniques that enhance the natural materiality and elegance of plant fibers. Fresh, durable and with a distinctive texture, linen is one of the oldest and most prized fibers in the history of textiles<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Availability and packaging
\n<\/strong>Our linen tops are available in 100 g, 500 g, 1 kg packages<\/strong> per color. Each package has a natural tolerance of \u00b13%<\/strong> and contains linen in continuous tape. <\/strong>The different packages are designed for both those who need small quantities and those who need large quantities and\/or want to save money. For non-ECE<\/strong> shipments, the packages are vacuum-packed<\/strong>, reducing volume and lowering shipping costs. Don’t worry: once opened, the flax returns to its original<\/strong>, fluffy volume<\/strong> with no loss of quality. <\/p>\n
