Materials used in our bed linen:

Cotton: A soft, natural material that breathes, absorbs moisture and feels comfortable against your skin. It also becomes softer with every wash.

Rayon: Crafted from regenerated cellulose, often wood pulp, rayon blends a touch of silkiness with practical moisture-wicking properties, for bedding that’s as smart as it is comfortable.

Viscose: Spun from cellulose fibers, viscose brings a delightful silk-like smoothness, coupled with excellent moisture absorption, perfect for keeping your bed fresh and inviting.

Lyocell: Sourced from wood pulp, lyocell fabric excels in keeping you cool and dry, offering a gentle, soothing touch for a restful night’s sleep.
