WEBSITE QUESTIONS
There are a varied number of ways that you can contact someone at Jan de Luz Linens…
For immediate questions and responses, please use the Live Chat:
Click on the Live Chat tab at the bottom of any page and you will be connected to a living breathing person. From there, you can ask them a quick question about where something is or inquire about our product selection and its customization… basically, think of it as immediately getting the attention of a Jan de Luz employee as if you were at the store location.
For not-so-immediate questions and responses, like custom orders or custom embroidery, please use Email:
Click on the badge in the upper right hand corner of the page, that says “Ask Brigitte”, and a pop up will appear. From there, you can enter your name and contact information, as well as note what kind of inquiry it is, and enter your request in the text field. You should receive a response by the following business day.
Brigitte is the proprietor and operator of the Jan de Luz Linens store in downtown Carmel by the Sea, California. Everything selected and presented in this website is something she has personally shopped and hand picked for her store. It is her taste and LookBook fashion and style that her customers have grown to appreciate and depend upon. Elegant and sophisticated, Brigitte is sure to help you with whatever problem you might run into with her products.
For example, in the embroidery section, when you are selecting thread colors for your monogram, and have found a monogram that allows for 2 thread colors… you might become confused about what secondary thread color might look complimentary to the primary thread color you choose. At the end of the secondary thread colors options, you can choose the square “Ask Brigitte”, and she will select a complimentary thread color based on the product, the embroidery design, and her 20+ years of service in the realm of aesthetic embroidery and artistic appeal.
But this is not the only example of when Brigitte might know the answer. If you have a question about whether this or that can be embroidered, whether your wedding invitation fonts can be copied onto your wedding guest dinner placement napkins, or anything that comes along, concerning French style and or French linens, Brigitte is sure to have the answer.
No. You can go through shipping as a “guest”.

The reason why this may seem like such a long time, is because embroidery is not only Brigitte’s focus but main talent. She and/or her staff will check over every thread of embroidery work to make sure that you receive defined and high quality thread work on your purchased items. Each design is manually checked, entered, and then managed from start to completion. Please check out our article on how this antique thread artwork happens to learn about the history, technical terms, and versatility of thread weaving. Please allow for variance depending on the embroidery design that is being done or the quantity in the order.
Our fees are the same whether local or international.
