Punto antico is a technique of counted-thread embroidery to be executed on fabric with a visible and regular weave. The weave is regular when the warp and weft have the same density; i.e., in 1 cm2 of fabric there are the same number of threads both horizontally and vertically. A linen 10x10 counts ten threads per cm² (loose weave), a linen 22x22 (dense weave) contains twenty-two threads per cm². For the realization of the punto antico technique it is advisable to choose a weave that can range from 11x11 to 15x15 threads, or use floss, but also hemp or jute; of course the choice depends on the artistic effect one wants to achieve. The punto antico decoration, very linear and sober, is based on alternating voids (like drawnwork or ajourés) and fills in the form of geometric real-stitch designs, sometimes a bit rigid but always very graceful and elegant, to which raised stitches such as steam stitch or crested stitch, and finishing stitches such as grass stitch, square, cord stitch, and others are added. Consequently, the stitches used are many, each with a particular function (filling, transparency, relief, definition of shapes).
Linen is the oldest and most fascinating among textile fibers; it was widely cultivated by Egyptians, Babylonians, Phoenicians and other peoples of the Middle East. The production, transformation and uses of linen are well documented in tombs, pyramids and on other monuments among the Egyptians; pure linen was a symbol of divine purity. Even today the cultivation, harvesting and processing techniques are continually evolving, making linen a modern and unique fabric.
Linen is cultivated both for seed production and to obtain a very valuable, soft, flexible and strong fiber. As a natural fiber, linen has hypoallergenic properties and supports the well-being of the body. Given its softness, immediate absorption and evaporation of liquids, and faster removal of heat and humidity,
