32 Count Alpenglow Belfast Hand Dyed Linen by Cedar River Linen

32 Count Alpenglow Hand Dyed Linen by Cedar River.

'Alpenglow is an optical phenomenon that appears as a horizontal reddish glow near the horizon opposite to the Sun when the solar disk is just below the horizon.' - Wikipedia 

In the PNW, Alpenglow tends to be a more common occurrence in the fall and winter when there are more ice crystals or particulates in the air - just before sunrise or just after sunset. It feels almost like a wash of color due to the fact that it isn't exactly direct sunlight but is instead a reflection or diffraction of that light. 

While we can never perfectly capture nature's colors, this linen reminds me of time spent watching the weather and the way it interacts with our landscape.
