Old Traditions, New Ideas – Table Linen with Character

Born in the heart of Rome, La Gallina Matta was founded by Claudia Petruzzi Granato. The brand draws on Italy’s rich heritage of textile artistry, blending traditional craftsmanship with a modern design sensibility. Each creation is infused with influences from Italian art, architecture and ancient craft traditions. The name La Gallina Matta – “the crazy hen” – takes inspiration from a Sardinian sculpture and perfectly embodies the brand’s creative, curious, and playful spirit.

In its Roman workshops, experienced seamstresses complete every piece by hand with needle, thread, and scissors, giving each piece its distinctive artisanal character. Every embroidery, every border, every contour bears the unmistakable signature of its maker. This handcrafted finish lends each piece a unique personality and authenticity, telling stories of Italian vitality and the joy of creating beauty by hand.

Perfect for everyday use, the coated linen placemats are durable, easy to maintain, and wonderfully pleasant to the touch. Most stains can be removed with a simple wipe of a damp sponge; if needed, they can also be gently machine-washed. Chic, long-lasting and practical – the perfect harmony of aesthetics and function, enriched with the effortless lightness of Italian living.

The La Gallina Matta Table Linen Collections at a Glance

With its distinctive silhouette, the Parentesi table linen collection transforms the dining table into a modern interpretation of a Renaissance tableau. Its graceful, geometric shape combines timeless elegance with a contemporary flair, while delicate decorative stitching highlights the beautifully coordinated colour palette. Thanks to its protective coating, the linen placemat is both easy to care for and suitable for indoor or outdoor use. The square Angelina linen napkins complement the Parentesi collection perfectly. On request, stitching colours can be customised – from subtle tone-on-tone shades to striking contrasts.

The Jeans table linen collection unites the relaxed charm of denim with the refined sophistication of Italian craftsmanship. The placemat, crafted from genuine denim fabric, features a gently curved square form that feels both modern and original. White decorative stitching and a matching border accentuate the textured surface and add an elegant finishing touch. The coated cotton can easily be wiped clean or gently machine-washed. The white Angeline linen napkin with denim-blue stitching continues the theme with understated style.

The Angelina napkins are the very essence of La Gallina Matta’s design philosophy. They can be freely combined with all the brand’s collections, their softly curved edges giving even the simplest fold a refined look. A delicate hem enhances the natural texture of pure linen, forming a beautiful contrast to the modern hues of the collection. Let your imagination lead the way – and rediscover the joy of Italian design with La Gallina Matta.
