I have been a avid collector of Irish linen for 50 years My family were involved in growing flex, finishing and weaving linen My present listings are Heirloom items that mostly came from my extended family I intend to list all my best pieces over the next few months Some very unusual quality pieces that have been in my family for many years. Even before I was born My interest began when I was a small Child I was taught how to care and repair linen by my Mother She worked in the industry Which she was very proud of and was an expert needlework person I have researched all my pieces and know the provenance of most of them I enjoy introducing people to Irish Linen and hope they enjoy the Beauty and durability of Antique Linen Woven in Northern Ireland I am happy to give any advice I can happy to post internationally
