Claessens Belgian Linen
In 1906, close to the River Leie and in the middle of the Flax District, Victor Claessens founded a company to produce top quality artist's canvas. To that end, he refined the tried and tested methods that had been passed down from generation to generation.
Now a century later, Claessens NV is still operating in the original buildings in Waregem, Belgium. The descendants of Victor Claessens have made a conscious choice to keep a small-scale approach to production and to honor the traditional methods for treating and coating artist's canvas. This respect for tradition and experience has made Claessens the premier name in primed linen canvas among artists worldwide.
Signature Canvas now proudly offers Claessens Linen directly to the artist. Sold in one yard increments for your convenience. We will also custom stretch for you any of the Claessens linen fabrics over our American poplar hardwood frames. Please contact us for pricing.

"Signature Canvas is the ultimate in strong and dependable construction, and the surface is gessoed perfectly for the artist to pick up a brush and start painting immediately. I really appreciate that; it arrives ready to go! I love the quality of Signature Canvas and will be using it forever."
