Another beautiful cotton fabric is sateen. It has a very delicate sheen that gives it its signature 5-star silky look and feel. Sateen bedding tends to be heavier and thicker than percale because of its weave so it’s the ideal bedding option for those looking for an extra warm layer at night. Because of its silky finish, sateen will give your bedroom a major luxury update.

When we think of bed we tend to associate it with comfort. Sleeping on a mattress with clean, crisp, bed sheets, a soft, cosy duvet, and a sumptuous pillow has to be one of today’s simple pleasures. However, this was not always the case. The earliest human beings slept on the cold, hard floor using leaves and straw as a base. Instead of duvet covers or quilts, they used animal furs for warmth.
