MOUTET ARCHIVES TEA TOWEL

Tissage Moutet designs and manufactures high-end table and home linen in France, drawing on textile expertise passed down for over 150 years.

From the spool of cotton or linen thread right through to the preparation of your order, every stage of production takes place in our weaving workshop in Orthez, in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques. The dyeing of our yarns is carried out by a workshop located just 60 km away, which holds the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (EPV) label.

Our exceptional expertise and our commitments are recognised by the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label, the Linge Basque Geographical Indication and our membership of Ateliers d’Art de France.

The Moutet team embodies the brand’s signature style, which is the result of traditional textile craftsmanship: quality, intricate weaves, jacquard weaving and touches of embroidery. Always on the lookout for new talent, the design studio seeks out designers – both men and women – to bring table and home linen to life in a visionary and original way. Drawing also on the archives, it reinterprets the iconic designs from Maison Moutet’s heritage and demonstrates, collection after collection, that Linge Basque (GI) is more timeless and on-trend than ever.

This product does not require any special care, provided you follow a few simple guidelines. All our fabrics are machine-washable at up to 60°. We recommend washing them for the first time at 30°.

Choose a washing powder without optical brighteners or bleaching agents to preserve the vibrancy of the colours. Use fabric softeners sparingly, as they reduce the fabric’s absorbency. A slight shrinkage of natural fibres is normal after the first few washes.

After washing, remove the laundry from the machine promptly to prevent creases; air-dry or tumble-dry at a moderate temperature, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

If a stain appears, treat it promptly with a suitable pre-wash stain remover or a specific remedy depending on the type of stain. Never iron a garment until the stain has completely disappeared.
