What makes Egyptian cotton bed linen superior?

Egyptian cotton is renowned for its long fibres, which result in exceptionally soft, durable, and breathable bed linen. Our Egyptian cotton bed linen provides unparalleled comfort and luxury for a truly indulgent sleep experience.

 

What is the best thread count?

Thread count tells you the number of threads woven into one square inch of fabric. While higher thread counts often indicate a softer and more luxurious feel, the ideal thread count ultimately depends on personal preference. Please note that thread count is not the only factor determining the quality of a fabric. The type of weave - percale or sateen - as well as the finishing touches applied to a particular fabric at the factory are equally important to the feel of the final product.

How do I care for my Egyptian cotton bed linen?

To maintain the luxurious softness and longevity of your Egyptian cotton bed linen, we recommend machine washing it in cool water, setting your spinning speed fairly low, and tumble drying on a low setting only if needed. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals, and iron on a low heat if necessary. 

 

Can I expect any shrinkage with your Egyptian cotton bed linen?

Minimal shrinkage may occur with initial washings, as is typical with high-quality cotton fabrics. However, our Egyptian cotton bed linen is pre-shrunk to minimize this effect, and following our care instructions will help maintain the size and shape of your linens.

 

Can I purchase individual pieces of bed linen instead of a set?

Yes, we offer the flexibility to purchase individual pieces of Egyptian cotton bed linen according to your needs. Whether you need an extra fitted sheet, flat sheet, or additional pillowcases, you can customize your order to create the perfect bedding ensemble for your bedroom. 

 

How can I improve my sleep quality naturally?

Optimizing your sleep environment with bed linen made from high quality 100% natural fibres like our Egyptian cotton and washed linen is the most important first step. Improving sleep quality naturally also involves adopting healthy sleep habits, such as maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, creating a relaxing bedtime routine, avoiding stimulants and screens before bed, and managing stress through relaxation techniques like meditation or deep breathing exercises.

 

What is washed linen bedding?

Washed linen bedding refers to bedding made from linen fabric that has been pre-washed and specially treated for a softer, more relaxed look and feel. This process enhances the natural softness and drape of linen, resulting in a cozy and inviting sleep environment.

 

What are the benefits of washed linen bedding?

 

Washed linen bedding offers numerous benefits, including exceptional breathability, moisture-wicking properties, and durability. It is also hypoallergenic, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin or allergies. Additionally, washed linen bedding has a unique texture and appearance that adds a touch of relaxed elegance to any bedroom.

 

Is washed linen bedding sustainable?

Yes, washed linen bedding is considered a sustainable choice for several reasons. Firstly, linen is made from the flax plant, which requires minimal water and no pesticides to grow. Additionally, flax is typically grown in cooler climates unsuitable for food crops, reducing competition for arable land.

Furthermore, linen - just like Egyptian coton - is a durable fabric with a long lifespan, meaning that washed linen bedding will last for years, reducing the need for frequent replacements and minimizing waste.

Overall, choosing washed linen bedding is an environmentally conscious decision that supports sustainable farming practices and reduces the carbon footprint of your bedding.

 

How do I care for washed linen bedding?

Washing linen bedding is easy and straightforward. Simply machine wash your linen bedding in cool water with a mild detergent, and avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals. Spin at low speed and air dry, or tumble dry briefly on low heat if necessary, and remove promptly to minimize wrinkles. Linen naturally softens with each wash, so frequent laundering will only enhance its comfort and texture.

 

Will washed linen bedding shrink?

Washed linen bedding has been pre-shrunk during the washing process to minimize shrinkage. However, some minimal shrinkage may still occur, especially during the initial wash. To reduce shrinkage, it's essential to follow the care instructions provided and avoid washing in hot water or using high heat during drying.

 

Is washed linen bedding suitable for all seasons?

Yes, washed linen bedding is suitable for all seasons due to its excellent breathability and moisture-wicking properties. In warmer weather, linen keeps you cool and comfortable by allowing air to circulate freely, while in colder weather, it provides natural insulation to keep you warm and cozy. The soft, lightweight texture of washed linen bedding ensures year-round comfort.

 

Does washed linen bedding require ironing?

Washed linen bedding has a relaxed, casual appearance that embraces the natural texture and wrinkles of linen. While some people prefer the lived-in look of un-ironed linen bedding, others may choose to iron their bedding for a smoother finish. However, frequent washing and use will naturally soften and relax the fabric, reducing the need for ironing over time.

 

Are your bed linen products suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, most definitely! Our Egyptian cotton and washed linen products are hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin. The natural fibers are less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions, making them an ideal choice for those with delicate skin or allergies.
