HERITAGE SHEETS
Inspired by heavier weight sheets from the Italian countryside in the 1800s, this unique satin weave was created to give the perfect amount of dull shine and sensual touch. It combines the irregular movement of linen on one side and beautiful cotton satin against the skin. These bedsheets are designed to get better as they age, the more you wash them the softer they get. The simple flat sheet is perfect for the hotter summer months.

THE FEEL
Our sheets are made of a satin weave of cotton and linen. We created rich sheeting reminiscing the thickness and character of linen or antique hemp while also having the smooth, soft feel of more modern cotton sheets.
The side of the sheet that goes against your skin is an extra soft, subtly shimmering cotton satin. Like silk, it creates a lot less friction against your skin and hair while you sleep compared to a cotton percale sheet. Helping you avoid the extra face creases and messy hair in the morning.
The other side is linen, which gives the richness, movement, and texture to our Heritage Sheets. The plus side is that our sheets won't stretch out as linen sheets usually do because of the cotton and linen weave.
The result is a luxury set of bed sheets to welcome you and softly cuddle your skin in bed every night.

SIZING
We know it's complicated to find a perfect Fitted Sheet for your mattress. Here are some more details about our sheet sizing:
Queen - W162 x L205 x D40 cm, W64 x L81 x D16 inches.
This will fit most standard Queen European mattresses, it fits nicely a mattress around 30 cm deep with a topper.
King - W182 x L205 x D40 cm, W72 x L81 x D16 inches.
This will fit most King European mattresses, it fits nicely a mattress around 30 cm deep with a topper.
You can also use a Flat Sheet to cover yourself in the hotter summer months, but also cover your mattress instead of a Fitted Sheet. We offer two Flat Sheet sizes:
Queen - 265 x 285 cm, 104 x 112 inches.
This size fits a Double or Queen size bed, and can even work as a Flat sheet on a King sized bed if you rather have it a little bit smaller.
King - 285 x 285 cm, 112 x 112 inches.
This extra large sheet can cover all bed sizes King and above.
Contact us if you have any questions about sizing and colourway pairings.
CARE
Always wash your sheets separately.
Wash the pillow cases and duvet cover inside out to preserve the colour and wear.
Wash 30', hang to dry or use a cool tumble dry.
The Heritage Sheets love a strong iron - it accentuates the satin.

MATERIA
We believe in the importance of the quality of materials, as it is what makes something long-lasting, and we also seek to create textiles that evoke emotion. Therefore, we carefully select our fibres from natural origins and weave, accepting their natural movement, character, and warmth.
We build organic and multi-dimensional textures, often using techniques that add even more depth to the material. Our certified dye process allows layers of colours to play like a patina against these textures, adding richness and complexity. We also work with No Dye, “Dye-less”, to offer the purest and chemical-free product possible.
Our textile collection is 100% woven, dyed and finished in Italy.
REVERENCE FOR NATURE
