Lithuanian Linen Oven Mitten, Natural

Lithuanian Linen Oven Mitten, Natural
£22.00
Ex Tax: £18.33
A handy oven mitt, suitable to take hot dishes out the oven with; equally useful as a pot holder. With a sturdy and durable linen exterior, lined with cotton and leather for insulation and comfort, as well as a loop for easy storage. This mitt's short shape means you can quickly and easily insert your hand, making it a convenient kitchen aid. 

Designed by Yumiko Sekine, founder of Fog Linen Works. Sekine started her first business in 1993 importing goods from around the world to Japan — finding a shortage of affordable, high-quality linen, she travelled to Lithuania in 1999, where a long tradition of flax cultivation and linen production inspired a partnership with a local manufacturer. What began as a collection of seven textile products has since grown into an extensive range of linen towels and cloths, as well as a range of household products created in collaboration with skilled artisans from India.

Measures 13cm by 13cm. Made in Lithuania.

Care Advice

Wash separately at 40 — 60°C, in plenty of water. Avoid softener and bleach, especially on towels as this can affect their absorbency. Do not tumble dry and reshape while damp. Linen bought “Unwashed” will shrink by approximately 7% after washing, its surface wrinkling and softening. Iron while the fabric is still damp, remembering that linen dries quickly.
