Three crowns

Since 1981, we have been manufacturing table linen and napkins for all Swedish embassies around the world in the 'Three Crowns' pattern on behalf of the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Designer Sofia Vidén.

Excerpt from the book “Weaving One’s History”:

After the almost shocking exhibition LIN at Märta Österdahl's in 1982, an incredible amount happened for the LInneväveriet in Klässbol. We were able to set up more telephone lines in the building and our self-confidence had grown. Shortly afterwards, the then head of the Royal Swedish Building Agency, Göran Faust, contacted us and asked for a quote for linen napkins and linen tablecloths for Swedish cutlery around the world. This meant public recognition. Klässbols accepted the challenge. Behind the proposal was Astri Sampe's stance on the issue. Synthetic fiber could have been considered, but Astrid Sampe insisted on linen and had singled out the Klässbols company. For the purpose and for the increased quality requirements, a completely new loom and very finely spun yarn were required. The Building Agency's order meant copying the tablecloths for Swedish embassies that Sofie Widén had designed in the 1940s.

The book is available for purchase at Väveriet in both Klässbol and Stockholm, as well as in some online bookstores line as Bokus .

Satellite

The latest production is the Satelit tablecloths and napkins, designed by Lena Bergström.

The satellite pattern symbolizes the directions of different meetings all over the world. An orbit of conversations around the round table. The lines run forward in the shiny lineand cross each other's paths. Satellite threads that form a web of joy, warmth and understanding.
