What is French flax linen?

Our bedding is made from 100% linen woven from flax sourced from France. Linen is valued for its natural breathability, durability and relaxed texture, making it a beautiful fabric to live with every day.

Is linen bedding suitable all year round?

Yes. Linen is naturally breathable and helps regulate temperature, which makes it comfortable through both warmer nights and cooler seasons.

Will your fitted linen sheets fit a deep mattress?

Our fitted linen sheets have a 40cm depth. Because mattress dimensions can vary, we recommend checking your mattress against our measurements before ordering. View our NZ & Australian bed linen size guide.

Does linen feel rough when it's new?

Our French flax linen is prewashed for softness, so it already has a relaxed feel when it arrives. One of the lovely things about linen is that it continues to soften with washing and use.

Can I see and feel the linen before ordering bedding?

Yes. If you're unsure about a colour, print or how the fabric feels, you can order a linen swatch first. It's an easy way to see the fabric in your own home before choosing your linen sheets, duvet cover or pillowcases.

Do you ship linen bedding to Australia?

Yes, Aspen & Fern ships to both New Zealand and Australia. If you're ordering from Australia, we recommend checking our bedding measurements first, as some Australian and New Zealand bed linen sizes differ.

WHY FRENCH FLAX LINEN?

Comfort that gets better with time

Linen is naturally breathable and temperature regulating, helping you feel comfortable through warm nights and cooler seasons. Its relaxed texture softens beautifully with every wash while retaining the strength that makes linen so well suited to everyday use.
