    Good Morning !

    Bought eight of these Vera Napkins, two have original paper labels. They photographed white but look off white to me. The color is uniform on all of them. My question how can I determine if these are yellowed from age without washing them ?

    My experience with linens has been that age related yellowing shows in the folds/creases. Where yours are uniform in color, I would think they are the natural color.

    But others may have a different opinion.

    There are numerous examples of your VERA napkins on the internet. Why don't you click and compare?

    If you are keeping these for personal use, you would want to wash first purely from standpoint of hygiene, but if selling, you would lose the paper labels when washing.
    I agree with Judy, think the color is natural.

    Thanks to all of you !

    I did look on the net to compare and all looked white. Yes, they will be sold and I did not want to mislead anyone.
