The spirit of the Basque people is most evident in the vibrant colors and patterns woven into their linen. For the past thirty years, Jean Vier has created fabrics based on these patterns from 100% natural cotton and flax. The resulting linen is elegant, long lasting, and the highest quality. Delightful to the touch and beautiful to behold, Jean Vier linen is a perfect addition to any kitchen or dinner table.

The universal designs, and timeless elegance, suit any home interior.

Drawing on a weaving tradition that dates back to the Middle Ages, Jean Vier produces both historical and contemporary versions of distinctive fabrics. They're unique in their legendary color resistance: Soak new linens overnight in cold water, and those vivid hues won't fade even after multiple washes.

This over-sized cotton tea towel is woven with a Jacquard weave, so the pattern is woven into the fabric instead of printed onto the fabric, so the pattern does not rub off, but instead lasts forever. This style features bee houses, flowers, and bees in orange and brown tones.

These are limited edition tea towels and aprons. Jean Vier makes them for a few months, and then discontinues that design. If you see one you like, grab it, as we are never sure when they will discontinue a design.

Antonino Mennella is a passionate young extra virgin olive oil producer from the Salerno area of Campania, Italy. On his small 2,000-tree farm he produces this limited edition Raro ('rare') extra virgin olive oil by removing the pits of the Ravece and Rotondella olives, and then only pressing the remaining fruit. This process is known as "denocciolate".

This pitting before pressing is unique, and it creates an extraordinary extra virgin olive oil unlike any other you will find.

Antonino uses advanced pressing and processing technology to provide a super extra virgin olive oil with double the average content of polyphenol antioxidants, and an astoundingly low level of free oleic acid. As a result, this extra virgin olive oil has almost the same level of freshness as an olive still on the tree.

La Madonna dell’Olivo has optimal levels of vitamin E tocopherols, and Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. This extra virgin olive oil has a remarkably well balanced flavor profile and is thus a ‘double winner’ -- an elixir of good health with amazing flavor.

This is a deep, intensely fruity extra virgin olive oil with irresistible aromas.

"My objective," says Antonino, "is to fight uniformity and exalt differences." Try this Raro Extra Virgin Olive Oil and you will see exactly what he means!

Les Confitures à l’Anciennes Andresy (old fashioned jams) are cooked in copper basins with whole selected fruits, cane sugar, and lemon juice to refine when necessary. No preservatives, coloring agents or artificial flavors... All natural!

Spread it on a baguette, top with a smear of foie gras terrine, arugula, & brie.

This classic flavor is perfectly suited for pork or poultry dishes. Mix in with a sausage stuffing, or spread it on some Manchego for a sweet and salty treat. We love spreading it on slices of bread for a fig and proscuitto sandwich!
