Sheets with a Leading Role: Designs and Qualities for a Better Night's Sleep

Differences in Cotton Sheets

As with everything, there are many types of quality in cotton sheets, depending on the type of thread, how it is woven, and its blend with other fibres.

The different types of cotton you might find on the market are:

• Egyptian Cotton: The highest quality, famous for its long, extra-fine fibre. Its strengths are softness, breathability, and durability.
• Pima Cotton: Similar to the above but with slightly shorter fibre. The advantages are the same.
• Percale Cotton: This is a smooth, lustrous cotton fabric, cool, breathable, and durable. It is somewhat more affordable than the others.
• Sateen Cotton: A cotton fabric with a satin finish that gives it a distinctive sheen. It is also good, soft, cool, and sophisticated.

In principle, the best cotton for sheets is Egyptian due to its extreme softness and durability. If you are looking for high-quality sheets at a more affordable price, you might opt for 100% cotton sheets, ideal for all seasons and available with varying thread counts.

Important Features of Sheets

In addition to the type of cotton used, there are other key features to consider when choosing sheets:

• Thread Count: The number of threads per square inch always indicates the density of the fabric. The higher the thread count, the softer and more durable the fabric. For example, on our website, most have 150 threads or more.

• Size and Fit: It’s important to choose the right size of sheets to fit your bed. Consider the size of the mattress as well as its thickness to ensure a perfect fit.

The most common sizes are standard: 90 cm, 135 cm, 150 cm, 180 cm, 200 cm. In our online store, we have them in all standard sizes.

Here you can see our fitted sheets and also the flat sheets. We also have children's bedding sets for cots or small beds.

 

Washing and Caring for Sheets

To extend the life of your sheets, it is necessary to wash them with programs suitable for their composition (if in doubt, consult the label). It is recommended to wash or change them once a week.

To keep them in good condition, wash them preferably in cold water (30 degrees) and with a mild detergent. Fabric softener is not necessary.

The best way to dry sheets is to air dry them, but if you can’t hang them outside, do so in a cool, sunny place in the house. This will help prevent unpleasant smells.

Ironing sheets is not essential, but some types, like linen, crease a lot. Do it if you think it’s necessary or if they look better when making your bed.

It’s up to you! What we do recommend is to use sheets made from natural materials, not synthetics, such as cotton, for a better rest and a bed that is more comfortable, soft, cool, and gentle on all skin types.

 

Sheets That Want to be the Stars of Your Decor

There are sheet designs, whether fitted or flat, that aim to stand out in your decor and will fill you with incredible sensations.

Apart from providing comfort, many sheets can energise you or help you relax. Due to their beauty, they can also improve your mood. Choose them based on your needs and preferences!

As for colours, there are immaculate white sheets, cream, beige, or sand tones, as well as pastel colours or vivid shades.

If you like patterned sheets, choose the motif or pattern you like best and leave the top sheet visible over the duvet or coverlet to show it off to the fullest.
