Scandinavian Linen The linen of Kings… The Ekelund family has been purveyors to the Royal Court of Sweden for over a century. Our very first documented delivery took place in 1878. The order
was probably placed in connection with Crown Prince Gustav’s visit to our mill in 1877.
Even after ascending to the throne, Gustav V remained an esteemed customer,
as did his son, Gustav VI Adolf. We are also pleased to accommodate our present king, Carl XVI Gustav.
Presidents…
Supplying linen goods to Russia, which has the world’s largest industrial
production of linen, is unusual. Being favored with an exclusive order from the Kremlin
is rarer still; but in 1996 we were proud to deliver tablecloths and napkins to the stately banquet halls. The tablecloths were 10 meters long and featured the Russian
Coat of Arms woven into the edging.
and Emperors...
His Majesty Akihito of Japan, the last remaining emperor,
purchased Ekelund tablecloths on a visit to Sweden in 2000.
