How do you tell the difference between Irish linen and french linen?

To distinguish between Irish linen and French linen, examine the texture and feel: Irish linen is often coarser and has a more rustic finish due to its traditional production methods, while French linen tends to be finer and smoother, reflecting its emphasis on craftsmanship. Additionally, consider the color and dyeing techniques; Irish linen often features natural, earthy tones, whereas French linen may showcase a wider range of vibrant colors. Finally, check for labels or provenance details, as these can indicate the origin of the linen.
