The Belgian Table Throw Railway pure linen from Libeco
On a long table, the Railway linen table throw from Libeco reads like a line drawn with a ruler. Two parallel stripes approach each end, one broad and one narrow, in leather brown, blue and mustard yellow. They run across a flax-coloured ground and stop short of the fringes. The name suggests tracks, yet nothing about the cloth feels industrial. It simply lies there, quiet and orderly. A throw also never hides the whole table, so oak or walnut still speak beneath the plates.

A towel that became a tablecloth
At Libeco the idea for Railway started with The Belgian Towel, one of the mill’s own designs. The designer wanted the same graphic clarity on the dining table, therefore she reworked it as table linen with a stronger plain weave. That weave matters, since it lets the cloth go into the washing machine without complaint. Libeco has practised this craft in Belgium since 1858. In 2006 the Belgian court honoured the house as a Royal Warrant Holder. All of its fabrics carry the Masters of Linen label, a guarantee of European origin from field to cloth. Oeko-Tex, moreover, attests that they contain no harmful substances. Railway thus keeps a sober line while drawing on a long tradition.

Description

Railway, parallel lines on a linen table throw

Railway is pure linen, 100 per cent, washed and heavy at 380 grams per square metre. Such weight helps the throw lie still, even when chairs move and elbows rest on it. The yarn has a count of Nm 58, while the plain weave keeps the surface even and dense. Linen also takes up a spilt glass quickly and then releases the moisture again. After a few washes the cloth softens, yet the parallel stripes stay crisp. Fringes at both ends add a casual note, so the table never feels stiff. Six matching napkins complete the place settings. You will find Railway within the Libeco tablecloths collection, next to the other throws from the same family.

Care

Railway goes into the machine at up to 60 degrees, although a lower setting keeps the linen young for longer. Optical brighteners have no place in this wash: they fade natural colours and leave the fabric pale. A half-empty drum suits it well. Spin only briefly and moderately, because linen creases less when some moisture remains. For ironing, pick the hot setting while the cloth still feels a little damp. The tumble dryer, on the other hand, can shrink linen, therefore hang Railway up to dry.
