66 Claessens Unprimed Linen 84in. Sold Per CM

Claessens principally produces canvas from pure flax (Linen). This provides the best quality and is by far the most durable.

This long-stemmed plant is harvested and then steeped in water. This makes it easier for the golden, soft fibres to be stripped from the woody bast. Flax is grown mainly in the district around the River Leie in the region where many famous Flemish painters have worked and where Claessens has always been based.
