IL019 All-purpose Antique White Softened - 100% Linen Fabric - Medium (5.3 oz/yd2), Width 58"
The creamy tone of Antique White, with its tarnished brown undertones, glistened across the great Realist painter Gustave Courbet's canvases, investing them with the sparkling vibrancy of the French coast. Courbet's trademark palette was warm beige, sandy or golden tones, applied with a knife to the canvas in thick slabs as rich and heady as buttercream.
Dedicated to capturing the essence of real-time and place in these scenes, he observed how "Painting is an essentially concrete art and can only consist of the representation of real and existing things."
At a medium weight of 5.3 ounces this 58 inch wide 100% linen is versatile enough to be referred to as an All Purpose or Do it All linen. With its smooth look and tighter weave, this linen is neither sheer or heavy, but just the right in-between weight you will need for a variety of projects.
The cloth is Softened so we have added a softener to give it a silkier hand. The fabric has not been laundered so shrinkage will still have to be taken into consideration (shrinkage depends on fabric weave and laundering method).
