We’ve refined every detail to ensure your bedding feels great and performs well night after night. Here’s a full breakdown of the fabric, features, and finishing touches:
Free Shipping
We offer free ground shipping on all orders to the US and Canada. Visit our Shipping Policy page for full details and additional delivery options.
100-Day Returns
Linen softens beautifully with each wash, and we want you to have time to experience that transformation. That’s why we offer a 100-day return window on all orders (excluding renewed bedding and clearance items). Some exceptions apply—see our Refunds and Returns Policy for details.
Not all linen is created equal. While some bedding is made from flax grown in regions that rely on heavy irrigation or intensive agricultural inputs, our bedding is crafted from traceable European flax sourced from France, Belgium, and the Netherlands — the natural home of the world’s finest linen, often referred to as the Flax Belt.
Flax grown in this region is naturally rain-fed and well suited to the local climate, producing long, strong fibers that result in linen that’s softer, smoother, and more durable over time. It’s where quality meets thoughtful sourcing — naturally.

"This is my first fitted sheet from The Modern Dane and I'm loving it! I ordered the green (grøn) and was a little hesitant thinking it would be a bit more chartreuse than I'd like, but it's a beautiful green! I loved it the minute I opened the box. I ordered the twin sheet and although I have a shallower mattress at 6" tall, it still fits! Definitely recommend :)"
"The fitted sheet was comfortable right out of the box. The pockets are super deep, so it will easily fit most mattresses. My only concern is that the fabric is pretty sheer. I expected more heft to it similar to the linen duvet cover I have from the Modern Dane . I spilled just a very little of something on the linen sheet and it leaked right through to the mattress protector. So instead of having to wash my mattress protector in the future should it happen again, I have now placed a flannel fitted sheet on my bed first. I then add the linen fitted sheet on top of it because I do want to be enveloped in linen. Given the extra steps, I need to go through to make my bed, I’m not sure if I would do the linen fitted sheet again. I do intend to keep it. I do love that the sheet is soft and organic and I think the company is fabulous. Plus I live in the Seattle area and I want to support a local business."
"This fitted sheet is not as fitted as I would like. I ordered the correct size King Size bed but seems a little oversized. I love the feel of it though. Quality is amazing."
"Hello, I ordered a queen size linen sheet with pillow cases. I'm happy with the fabric and I'm curious to see how they hold up. They are textured but very soft. I notice a difference with sleeping cooler. It seems this brand goes the extra step of trying to guarantee the providence of their linen which is important to me. They're also reasonably priced when compared to other brands that go to similar effort. There are cheaper options out there but you'll notice they don't list the fabric weight nor have the same providence guarantees. I'm trying several other brands too to compare but so far I'm very happy with Modern Dane and would order again based on the quality I see."
"Initially purchased the Agern print duvet. Happy with the weight and quality of the linen. Subsequently purchased top and flat sheets. Helps me regulate my body temperature during the night and keeps me cool in the summer and warm in the winter."
"Generous size, well made, and priced fairly."
"I started with just a top sheet that I wrapped around me like a burrito as my husband said he didn't want linen sheets. He grew up in Italy and and experienced stiff, rough linen as a child and wanted nothing to do with it! However, after seeing how soft and comfortable THIS linen is, we purchased the fitted sheet as well and now we both enjoy the luxury of The Modern Dane sheets."
"I know it gets softer with washing, but it’s uncomfortable now."
"Comfortable and lovely pattern. Would buy again"
"Company was friendly and quick to respond by providing updates step by step Parents said their worth the wait and looking forward to their 2nd set they just ordered"
WHY OUR LINEN IS SO COMFORTABLE
SOFT
Our garment washed European linen naturally feels supple and soft. And the fabric becomes even softer with every wash!
THERMOREGULATING
Flax linen's hollow fiber allows it to breathe, keeping you cool in the summer and cozy in the winter.
HYPOALLERGENIC
Our high quality flax linen is naturally hypoallergenic and anti-bacterial. This makes it a great choice for sensitive skin.
ABSORBENT
Flax linen absorbs 20% of its own weight without feeling damp, keeping your skin dry and you comfortable throughout the night.
PEACE OF MIND
Comfort is a state of mind as well. Our linens are Oeko-Tex 100® Class 1 certified - your guarantee that what you sleep in is free from harmful chemicals.
ZERO IRRIGATION
The only water our European flax needs is provided by rainfall saving 100 billion gallons of water annually over cotton farming - or what New York City uses in 470 years.
ZERO CHEMICALS
The transformation of flax into linen is an entirely mechanical process performed by highly skilled craftsmen using no chemicals.
ZERO POLLUTION
Flax is naturally resistant to pests and requires zero pesticide or defoliants and five times less fertilizer than cotton.
ZERO GMO
Certified European flax is guaranteed to be GMO-free, a commitment signed by all our growers as part of the European Flax Charter.
CO2 REDUCTION
Every year, the growing of flax in Europe captures 330,000 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere.

"I’d been looking for the perfect duvet cover for a long, long time. I found it here.
The linen feels and looks like truth, like true organic earth. I am in love with this soft gift. Nothing is overdone except the attention to detail. Soft and beautiful. It is obvious that this bedding was created with great care.
I’ll be buying a second set soon for my cabin in the woods."
