Description

Osmankäämi napkin by Lapuan Kankurit celebrates nature with its vibrant textures and nuanced colours. The fabric napkin is decorated with a beautiful design by Elina Helenius, a tribute to the founder and first designer of Lapuan Kankurit, Liisa Hjelt. The original Osmankäämi textiles were designed in the 1970s and woven from jacquard, but now the material is 100% linen.

Thanks to its handy size, machine-washable material and lightweight feel, the Osmankäämi napkin is very versatile: in addition to both festive and day-to-day table settings, it also serves as a face towel in the bathroom or on trips. The linen napkin is woven at the Lapuan Kankurit weaving mill in Finland.
