A Touch of Irish Elegance

Ah, these handkerchiefs are simply beautiful! I treated myself to a few, and I couldn’t be happier. The linen is soft, yet there’s a strength to it that I know will last. It’s rare these days to find something made with such care, and every time I use one, I feel a little bit of that Irish heritage. There’s a lovely elegance in carrying a proper handkerchief, don’t you think? For anyone who appreciates quality and a bit of tradition, Ferguson’s handkerchiefs are a treasure.

The Perfect Gift with a Story

I bought a set of Ferguson’s handkerchiefs as a gift for the hubbie, and he absolutely loves them. We’re from Northern Ireland, so we’ve always appreciated Ferguson’s quality, but these handkerchiefs are something special. Knowing they’re crafted from generations of Irish weaving tradition makes them all the more meaningful. They’re soft, well-made, and feel like a piece of home. It’s wonderful to have something so lovely to give, with a story that speaks to our Irish roots.

A Practical Luxury and Eco-Friendly Too!

I’ve been trying to live a bit greener, so I decided to switch to linen handkerchiefs instead of paper tissues. And let me tell you, these are pure luxury! They’re so gentle on the skin, and after each wash, they get even softer. There’s something comforting about using a handkerchief that was made with the same dedication that’s been there for generations. It feels good knowing I’m doing my bit for the planet. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a touch of practical luxury!

What makes Irish Linen Handkerchiefs so unique?

Our part of Ireland creates the perfect environment naturally for weaving. So we have been able to do it for centuries learning techniques and skills that get passed down through generations. Today thanks to humidity controlled rooms, weaving can be done almost anywhere. However, it is the natural climate and legacy of expertise behind Irish Linen that makes it so special.  

Are Ferguson's Handkerchiefs pre-shrunk?

Yes, our handkerchiefs are pre-shrunk to ensure minimal shrinkage after washing.

Can I use bleach on my handkerchiefs?
