Sleep Better in Premium French Flax Linen
Bedding the way nature intended
Linen is one of the oldest fabrics on earth — and the most quietly luxurious. We weave ours from European flax grown in Normandy, France's flax-growing heartland, where cool Atlantic air and gentle rain produce the strongest, softest fibres available anywhere. Every Luxe & Rest sheet is 100% pure European flax, OEKO-TEX certified, stone-washed for instant softness, and woven at 170 GSM — the perfect weight for New Zealand's four seasons.
Why linen wins over cotton
Cotton was the obvious choice for decades. Then people discovered what the French knew all along — linen does it better. Linen is naturally breathable (cool in summer, warm in winter), absorbs 20% of its weight in moisture without feeling damp, lasts 20+ years (cotton lasts 5), and gets softer with every wash. Linen also needs no irrigation, no pesticides, and a third of the water cotton drinks to grow.
Premium linen, honestly priced
We started Luxe & Rest because Kiwi shoppers deserve the same European flax that boutique stores charge $600+ for — without the markup. The same 170 GSM French fibres. The same OEKO-TEX certified weave. The widest colour range in New Zealand: 13 hand-selected shades that mix, match and layer. Buy the full sheet set or just the pieces you need — it's your bed, your call.
