Limestone White Irish linen scalloped shirtdress

Description

Made from white Irish linen and end of line Irish metallic linen. Woven by Masters in Linen. A timeless piece for your wardrobe. Linen requires little to no chemicals in the growing of the crop and the cloth wears well with age. Crafted in Ireland. Made to order. Inspired by the tradition of “liming” the fields. In the 18th and 19th centuries many Irish farms burnt limestone in their own limestone kilns. It is a natural fertiliser optimising soil nutirents and balancing soil pH. Limestone was also used for whitewashing buildings and disinfecting water.

Made to order in Ireland
