Our story begins in 1912, four generations ago, when three sisters began to share their great passion for Florentine embroidery.
Since then, this passion has always been passed down in our family, generation after generation.
Laura, my grandmother, was a true artist able to turn her drawings into beautiful embroideries for the home linen, all handmade.

Percalle cotton is a high-quality type of cotton, characterized by fine yarns and a dense weave that gives the fabric a unique softness and silkiness to the touch.
Therefore it is often one of the fabrics that we prefer for the creation of our line Baroni linens.
Thanks to its excellent workmanship and the feeling of luxury it conveys, percale cotton is a very suitable choice for those who seek the best for their bed linen.

Cotton satin is a very old natural fiber, from ancient China.
It has a more compact structure than percale. It is made with a satin weave, in which most of the weft threads pass over the warp threads.
This particular texture gives the satin a silky finish and a slightly glossy and very soft surface.

Linen sheets are perfect for bedding.
They are cool in summer and warm in winter thanks to the thermal properties that characterize this fiber.
This fabric ensures a comfortable sleep all year round, absorbing moisture and drying quickly without leaving traces of sweat. In addition, linen sheets filter UVA rays, do not siave with washes and become softer over time, maintaining their natural appearance without deforming or yellowing.

Modal is a fabric derived from beech wood.
This beautiful natural fiber is distinguished by its softness and elasticity and is very smooth to the touch.
Modal has a high resistance to moisture and is extremely soft: thanks to these two important characteristics, is particularly suitable for all nightwear.

Here are some practical tips for washing, drying and ironing our linen.

• To preserve the linen, it is useful to divide it according to type of fiber (cotton, flax, silk, wool), color (white, light or dark) and type (sheets, towels, tablecloths).
• It is advisable to separate garments that contain synthetic fibres or components such as zippers or metal details, which could damage the fabrics.
• For the sheets, it is preferable to use cold water and a mild, biodegradable liquid detergent.
• It is always useful to consult the washing instructions both on the product page online and on the label applied to the garments.
• More delicate items, such as those with lace and embroidery, should be put inside a large mesh bag with thin meshes. In addition, pillowcases and duvet covers should be tipped before washing to protect the lace applications. Once the wash cycle is over, it is important to remove the laundry immediately from the washing machine and gently shake it to eliminate creases.
• It is recommended to use high temperatures only for the most resistant garments or stubborn stains.
• Recommended temperatures: for white garments, 50/60°C; for coloured garments, 30/40°C; for more delicate fabrics, wash in cold water with final rinse at 30°C.

• Laying in the open air: During the summer, Laying the sheets out helps to dry them quickly. 
• Avoid direct sun: Direct sunlight can discolor fabrics and make them stiffer, so it is best to lay them out in the shade or in a well-ventilated place.
• Fold in four: Fold wet sheets in four before laying them facilitates the next ironing.
• Lay well: Make sure the sheets are firmly stretched on the wire or on the drying rack to avoid excessive folds. 
• Dryer: If you have a dryer, choose a suitable program for the sheets and make sure there is enough space to prevent them from tangling.
• Dry separately: If possible, dry the sheets separately from other clothing to prevent them from tangling. 

• Steam iron: A steam iron makes ironing easier and more effective, especially for cotton sheets.
• Average temperature: I set the iron to medium temperature, checking the indications on the label of the fabric.  Ironing from the reverse: Ironing sheets from the reverse helps protect the colours and fabric.
• Slightly moisten: If the sheets are too dry, slightly moisten the fabric with a spray before ironing.
• Area ironing: For large sheets, you can divide the ironing into smaller areas for a more precise result.
• Ironing with corners: If you have sheets with stretch corners, lay your garment on the ironing board so that the elastic can be pulled to eliminate creases.
