At the Table: Linen or Cotton?

The Mafra collection is available in 100% cotton and 100% linen.
How do you choose which is best for your table?
Both options share the classic design and delicate hemstitch detailing that have made Mafra such a cherished line, yet each material offers unique characteristics:
Mafra Linen: Tradition and Natural Elegance
Linen is renowned for its distinctive texture, durability, and sophistication. Each piece in the Mafra linen collection retains the material’s gentle firmness, exuding naturalness and elegance. Ideal for those who value timeless style and appreciate the authenticity of linen.
Mafra Cotton: Softness and Everyday Comfort
Cotton, on the other hand, offers a softer, more welcoming feel to the touch. Easier to care for and especially comfortable, it is perfect for everyday meals without compromising the elegance that defines the collection. Its uniform texture and delicate hemstitch detailing create a table that seems to invite you to sit and savour every moment.
Ultimately, the choice depends on what you want for your table: for a more natural and structured touch, linen is the ideal choice; for comfort, softness, and versatility, cotton stands out.
Mafra combines tradition, versatility, and timeless design, offering pieces that tell stories at the table with two distinct interpretations, adapting to each individual’s style and daily life.
