WHAT IS EGYPTIAN COTTON?
You guessed it – Egyptian Cotton is cotton that has been grown in Egypt. The Nile Delta has the perfect growing conditions for cotton due to its climate and nutrient-rich soil, producing strong, long-staple fibres. This means that finer, more durable, and luxurious textiles can be woven using this cotton variety – believed to be of the highest quality in the world.
Our Egyptian Cotton Bed Linen is tested and certified by the Cotton Egypt Association to ensure that we are supplying the best quality possible.
WHY IS EGYPTIAN COTTON CONSIDERED SUPERIOR?
Egyptian Cotton has an unmistakably luxurious feel because of its long-staple fibres, producing a softer and longer-lasting fabric. Along with softness and durability, it is also known for its beautiful lustre and absorbent capabilities, making it perfect for producing luxury bedding.
Bed sheets crafted from Egyptian Cotton are widely believed to offer superior quality compared to normal cotton. When combined with a higher thread count and luxurious cotton weaves (such as sateen sheets), you're left with an ultra smooth finish worthy of a five-star hotel.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF EGYPTIAN COTTON BEDDING?
There are many benefits to genuine Egyptian Cotton bed linen. Perhaps most obviously, Egyptian Cotton duvet covers and sheets feel incredibly soft and comfortable, creating a wonderfully luxurious feel. This extra-long staple cotton is also strong and long-wearing, so your bed linen will stand the test of time and continue to get better with age. Lastly, Egyptian Cotton allows air to pass through and is super breathable, meaning it is a great option for year-round use.
IS EGYPTIAN COTTON BETTER THAN REGULAR COTTON?
The fibre length of Egyptian Cotton is a major part of why it is largely considered superior to standard cotton or other materials. Yarns that have been crafted from shorter fibres have a higher risk of snagging, pilling, or forming holes than those with longer fibres. They can also have a rougher feel due to small protruding fibres. Conversely, the long fibres that form Egyptian Cotton yarns are smooth and work together to form a strong, durable surface that is luxuriously soft.
In saying this, not all Egyptian Cotton is guaranteed to be superior to standard cotton. It is important to ensure you are purchasing Certified Egyptian Cotton to guarantee that the fabric is crafted from long-staple fibres. Check the Egyptian Cotton label to ensure your cotton is certified.

Each season, our team of textile designers produce a range of exclusive prints for our bed linen collection. For summer 2023, they have created 5 quilt covers ranging from classic to contemporary. We spoke to the team about their artworks, the development process, and the inspiration behind each design.
Hattie
“Checks are having a moment, so Hattie was designed to give our customers an on-trend look while showcasing a beautiful colour palette. With its trans-seasonal appeal, this design combines pops of rust, olive, and straw-yellow with rich hues of plum and khaki. A woven texture gives Hattie a yarn-dyed look while allowing the colours to sing.”
“Blossoms remind me of spring. With new growth there is a feeling of new life, and this is the inspiration behind Kamala. This design was one of the first developed for summer as it possesses that soft, pretty feel our customers love. Branches seem to float across the bed as small, dainty birds perch over a pale cream ground.”
“Hiroshi was inspired by a traditional style of Japanese brush painting known as Hitsuzendo (the way of Zen through brush). My dad introduced me to it when he was living in Tokyo. He had a large room divider that always drew my attention – striking yet calming at the same time. I wanted to create a design along these lines, with a more abstract quality using large, expressive brush strokes. Hiroshi has a loose, dynamic energy while retaining a sense of balance.”
“For Kasbah, I wanted to evoke the rich colours and vibrancy of Marrakech. That feeling of discovery while travelling. This design was inspired by sun-baked clay walls, intricate tiles, oasis-like pools, and rugs found in local souks. It features scattered, hand-painted patterns in clay and blush with pops of jewel-toned blues. Fully reversible, one side features patchwork style patterns, while the other has a calmer feel with more of a stripe formation.”
“Found in many coastal areas, Sheoak reminds me of the ocean. It has a calming effect and a neutral palette, perfect for a restful style. To emulate the look and feel of Sheoak, I painted several large branches and foliage using a combination of techniques in ink, pastel, and watercolour. The background was painted in washy inks, giving the design a sense of movement as the branches sway and bend in the wind.”
