Egyptian Cotton Sheets
Egyptian cotton makes a stronger yarn. Egyptian cotton has a long staple or long fiber, which means that there is more continuous fiber to use while making threads or yarn. The yarn that is created from Egyptian cotton is smaller in diameter, but stronger than other cottons. Thus, there are more yarns per inch, it is a lighter weight, and it attains incredible strength.

Thread count or TC
THREAD COUNT: Simply put, this is the number of threads per square inch. both vertical and horizontal, in a one-inch square of fabric. Hold the sheet up to the light, if you can see through the fabric and make out the actual weave, youÂ’ve got a low thread count on your hands. The higher the thread count (or tc), the softer and more lustrous the fabric, and the more durable and less prone to shrinkage.
 
PERCALE: A smooth, flat, closely woven and combed fabric that comes in 100% cotton or 50/50 cotton/poly blends. Finer than muslin, expect TCÂ’s here to range from 180-250.
 
PIMA or SUPIMA: A high quality cotton whose long fiber staple is somewhat similar to that of Egyptian cotton. The differences are geographical only. Pima is grown in the southwestern part of the U.S. and Egyptian is grown along the Nile River. Supima is made from extra-long staple Pima. The soft hand feel of Pima and Supima make them very desirable in bedding. Expect to find TCÂ’s here from 200-300.
 
EGYPTIAN COTTON: This is the cotton queen of the Nile. Grown alongside the river, this quintessential cotton owes its superior durability, luster, and silky hand feel to its extra long fiber staple. TC counts range from 200-1000.
 
SATEEN: a weave construction that has more yarn surface on the face of the cloth than other basic weaves giving a softer hand and more lustrous look.
 
 
 
 
 
The higher the Thread Count the better the thread.  Our sheets get softer with every wash, and with the higher thread count, Egyptian cotton can last for literally decades. Also don't forget, nothing compares to the softness of sheets made from cotton hand picked in the land of the Nile . CONTINUE SHOPPING
 
 
Luxury Down Comforters
A good quality down comforter will provide warmth, serve as a natural insulator keeping in your body heat, be allergy free, and last but not least, make for a cozy, inviting bed. To ensure its long life, a down comforter should be used with a duvet cover. Not only will this protect the down from dirt and impurities, it will allow you to introduce change, color and style into your bedroom. There are three key elements to look for when choosing a down comforter. They are FILL POWER, THREAD COUNT and BAFFLED. FILL POWER: The quality of down is measured by its fill power. Down with a higher fill power will be lighter, fluffier and loftier making the comforter cloud-like. Higher fill power will also provide better insulation. THREAD COUNT: This is the number of threads per square inch. A higher count provides a softer, more durable product. It also keeps dirt from getting in, and down from sneaking out of your comforter. BAFFLED: Baffling is simply a type of construction, specifically sewn in cloth walls to keep the down from shifting and clumping. Down and feather-filled products are packed tightly during shipping. Upon receipt, remove them from their packaging, fluff gently, and allow several hours to recover their full loft. In addition, being sealed in plastic packaging sometimes causes the scent of these natural products to concentrate to a disagreeable level. A few hours of airing usually removes the odor. The Euro Check down comforter is the perfect lightweight comforter for air-conditioned hot summer nights, but is also ideal for cooler climates when a little extra warmth is needed to stay comfortable. Machine wash. Made in USA of Imported Materials  CONTINUE SHOPPING
