I'd suggest a net search for linen velvet. You will find it. But it is
incredibly expensive. It makes 100% silk velvet look cheap.

Ditto. I've never heard of such a thing. Even if it's couch weight, it may be
useful for something costume-related.

Could you please send me the links for the linen velvet? I'm very interested in
it.

Great. That's what I wanted to know. That would be a nice fabric for
1880s and 1920s, when some Renaissance-inspired fabrics were used.
I refrained from listing links I found to some linen velvets because
they were all sofa weight. Has anyone ever seen a linen velvet woven for
clothing?
