My name is Twyla LaVonne Cuckson
In early 2023, I embarked on a journey that would change my life and, hopefully, bring a touch of elegance to many others. It all started with a simple idea and a passion for sustainable, high-quality products.
Today, I am proud to share the story of how our company, LaVonne was born.
The inspiration came during a dinner party. Amid the delightful conversation and laughter, I noticed how disposable paper napkins were a constant eyesore on the beautifully set table. It was then that the idea struck me: Why not create luxurious, eco-friendly linen napkins that could elevate any dining experience?
​
With a background in textile design and a deep appreciation for craftsmanship, I set out to explore the world of linen. I spent months researching and connecting with suppliers who shared my vision for sustainability and quality. After countless samples and iterations, we finally developed a line of linen napkins that were not only beautiful but also durable and sustainable.
​
In November 2023 LaVonne officially launched. The response was overwhelming. Customers loved the elegant designs and the fact that our products were reusable, reducing waste and contributing to a more sustainable future. We quickly gained traction, and it wasn't long before our linen napkins were featured on many tables.
​
Recognizing a growing demand for unique products, we expanded our offerings to include bespoke corporate designs. We began collaborating with businesses to create custom-branded linen napkins that reflected their corporate identity and values. From exclusive patterns to embroidered logos, these bespoke designs not only enhanced corporate events and dining experiences but also served as a powerful branding tool. This initiative further cemented our reputation as a versatile and customer-centric company.
​
But our journey didn't stop there. We wanted to ensure that our products were accessible to the universe, our luxury linen napkins are currently selling in over 7 countries worldwide! No matter where in the world you are, LaVonne are here to help your tableware needs to reach the next level.
​
As we continue to grow, our commitment to quality and sustainability remains at the heart of everything we do. We're constantly exploring new ways to innovate and expand our product line while staying true to our core values. Our mission is to make every dining experience memorable and eco-friendly, one linen napkin at a time.
​
Looking back, I'm incredibly proud of how far we've come in such a short time. Founding LaVonne has been a challenging yet rewarding experience, and I am grateful for the support of our customers, and partners who believe in our vision.
Here's to a future filled with elegance, sustainability, and endless possibilities.
Thank you for being a part of our journey.
