Vala Alta asked me to write about how I am using this. I am going to assume this is a joke or they really think I am using it for some other use than as expected.
So, yes. I blow my nose in this. A lot (allergies and colds, right?). What I love about rough linen is that it dries so quickly. A cotton hanky will stay soggy for hours. Linen? Nope! Dries very quickly. I also wash them by hand and hang them to dry. They are ready to go the next morning.
Get a pile of these. You can thank me, and Vala Alta, later.
The quality is very nice and I enjoy the earthy colors. So far the handkerchiefs feel comfortable on my nose and face, but I'm not worried about them ripping.
There was some confusion with my first order, but after I placed another one, it arrived in only a few days and the other batch came shortly after. I didn't intend to have so many, but now I really enjoy swapping these out for daily use to have on hand for any purpose!
Beautiful product in a keepsake box with a beautiful presentation. I love my Vala Alta hankies, but this Heritage Box is next level.
My son and I both have allergies. I was tired of carrying kleenex, which would roll-up and get dusty in my purse. I decided to try these, and so far they work really well and are so beautiful as well. They remind me of my grandfather, who always had one in his pocket.
I specifically wanted the Monaco red, but what I received was like a rust color. And that color was really the only reason I ordered. The photo is very deceiving, the color is vibrant, but what I received wasn't. I was so sad. The quality is lovely, but I didn't get what I thought I ordered. Again, the quality is lovely, and it's a nice product.
I love the material and feel. The size was a little on the small size for a pocket hankerchief.
Very nice hanky. You won’t be disappointed!
Love the color, love the linen. The size (12x12) is a bit too small for a true handkerchief. It folds up into a chip. A little larger and it would be the perfect handkerchief.
My second set of the 12 inch handkerchiefs. This time, all colors because the white ones don't stay bright enough for me without extra care. Great product that puts any cotton to shame.
I recently bought a dozen of these linen handkerchiefs. I am very pleased with them. They are thick and will last a long time.
Absorbable, so much better than cotton. Purchased for his birthday and he loves them. Fluffed when they were washed.. Edges finished nicely. No more wet pockets.
My hubby is a handkerchief user and when I saw these I wanted him to have them. They far exceed my expectations of a linen hanky. Loved them so much that I bought a 7 pack of lilac(?) for myself and my son in law also a hanky user will get some for his birthday. The quality is lovely and the more they are washed, the better they get.
This is my second batch of linen handkerchiefs from them, and I really like them. Linen is an underrated fiber. And this is a great use for them. Obviously they're expensive compared to the cheap cotton kind, but if you feel like splurging a little you won't regret it.
It took a soak in some baking soda and a few washes but now they are so soft! I have bad allergies so I can go through a box of tissues in a week. My nose was always peeling and sore. These don't make my nose peel or sore. You have to try them out!
Love this handkerchief it is so soft. I love the Irish linen. I would highly recommend these to everybody I know.
