e e cummings Pocket Square, Literary Handkerchief, Bookworm Gift Idea, Monogrammed Pocket Square, Personalized Hankerchief, Initials Hankie

This Irish linen pocket square is white, and personalized with a hand-embroidered monogram in a beautiful, understated script, perfect for a wedding or as a gift to a literary friend or fan of e. e. cummings.

This handkerchief is made from 100% Irish handkerchief linen, for a crisp, cool texture that will only get better with use. Linen is stronger, absorbs more water, can withstand higher heat, and lasts longer than cotton, and the Irish weave the finest linen in the world. These hankerchiefs are hand-cut to a generous 13 inches and hemmed with a narrow rolled hem, for a personal touch that extends to the smallest details.

The embroidery, done in any color or shade you choose, consists of satin stitch and stem stitch artfully tapered to enhance the shape of each letter for a distinguished look. Each is embroidered completely by hand – not machine – and, although it takes more skill and more time, the results are worth it. Please send me a message with the initials you’d like me to embroider, or leave a note in the ‘Notes to Seller’ box at checkout.

I love to have a personal relationship with each of my customers. Message me with any custom requests, specific color shades, or any other questions you have! I love to know where every handkerchief is going, whether to a new grandfather in Ontario, groomsmen in Italy, or for a sweetheart here at home!
