bleach is 'la javel' (fem.) or ' l'eau de javel ' in French. The fabric or linen that do not accept bleach are market on their label with a symbol 'do not bleach', that the French read as 'ne pas javelliser' (verb) or 'pas de javel'. So unbleached linen would be 'du linge qui n'a pas été javellisé', but that's a bit clumsy as a sentence.
Bleached linen is linen fabric that has undergone a bleaching process to achieve a lighter, brighter color, typically white or near-white. This process removes any natural pigments found in the flax fibers, resulting in a smooth, uniform appearance. Bleached linen is often favored for its crisp look and is commonly used in home textiles, clothing, and tableware. It retains the natural texture and breathability of linen while offering a more polished aesthetic.
