For changing covers more often than whole sets.
The cover on its own, for when you already have pillowcases you like. Peach blossoms and small blue sprigs on an ivory cotton percale ground, with the soft edges of a watercolour. Crisp and matte, it gets softer with every wash.
You want a floral bed without buying the whole set.
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Wash separately for the first few cycles: deep and saturated colours release a little dye at first. Do not bleach, do not dry clean.
Textured weaves such as seersucker, waffle and gauze are meant to look relaxed: they need no ironing, and they soften with every wash.
Free standard shipping on orders over $99. Standard delivery takes 6 to 10 business days, priority 5 to 8. You'll get a tracking number as soon as your order ships.
Free returns for 60 days. Sleep on it, literally. If it isn't right, start a return from your account and we'll send you a prepaid label. Items should come back in a re-sellable condition.
Wrong size? We'll exchange it, and we cover the shipping both ways.
The fabric
One thread over, one thread under. The weave every good hotel uses, and for a reason.
Cotton is graded by staple, the length of the individual fibre. Long-staple cotton has fewer loose ends at the surface, so it stays smooth instead of going fuzzy after a few months. Short-staple cotton is cheaper and it shows by the third wash.
Percale is a simple over-under grid with nothing on top. That leaves space between the threads for air to move, which is why it feels cool the moment you get in. It is matte, never shiny.
Percale arrives with a papery crispness that softens over the first few washes without ever going limp. Tumble dry low. Iron it only if you like a sharp bed; it is not needed.
Percale if you sleep warm and like a crisp, matte bed. Sateen if you feel the cold and want something smooth with a soft sheen. It is a question of temperature, not of quality.
Only up to a point. Past roughly 400, the extra threads are usually thinner or double-counted, and the fabric breathes less. A 200-thread percale in long-staple cotton beats a 1,000-thread anything.
Long-staple percale should not. Pilling comes from short fibres working loose at the surface, which is exactly what long staple avoids.
