About Product
The silky linen is strong and durable surface for the art trade. It is produced from the fibers of the flax plant. Our linen is a product imported from Belgium. We use the same sized threads on the horizontal and vertical direction of the fabric (known as the warp and the fill respectively). Hence the fabric doesn't expand much (or contract either) due to moisture. Since linen retails natural oils, it keeps the canvas painting from turning brittle.
The silky linen has a smooth texture. Because of its strength, the silky linen is an ideal medium for heavy painting.
