SDH linens are so gorgeous that you will be challenged at first to make a decision. Help is provided by your local luxury bed linens store. Online sites offer great photos and same prices at retail for a standard. Best decisions are always made when in a store for actual product touch and feel. Many stores and website offer swatches, you can ask for them before you decide. SDH bedding arrives from Italy amongst other locales. High thread count jacquard woven multi color fabrics add to the finished pattern that is originated from a famous city or historical event. Find fabulous Marrakesh, Kara, Hydrangea sage, Far East oystershell, Julia cotton/silk and others that will enhance your travels be it local or abroad. Many of these high quality and high thread count, if not all, are machine washable. SDH wash is the product to use for laundering. This will help keep the expensive and luxurious linens pristine for years. SDH wash has a nice citrus fragrance. Speaking of fragrances, If you like nice body lotion and bath gel you must try the signature fragrances of Linen with the milder fragrance or Jasmine to help sooth the body and soften the skin. Some products that you may choose not to launder are the silk coverlets. Those are best professionally laundered to keep the radient sheen and quality of fill within the coverlets. Pouf, Allegro (sells out frequently), and Jazz make a bed set that is to remember. The Purists include all naturally grown Cotton or Linen fibers. You may know the signature pattern Jasmine woven with both the lighter color of Cotton (beige) and the darker flax color of Linen. Many have asked me if Linen is Cotton. What is Linen? The answer is that they are 2 different plants grown. Some Linen is more desirable in finer fabrics due to growing seasons, as well as Cotton from the warmer climates. Longer seasons create longer fibers which tend to weave stronger against each other. If you heard of Egyptian cotton, then you know that the fiber is longer making a stronger finished product. Egyptian cotton had a shortage the last few years resulting in the upswing in prices. Last year, Linen had the upswing of price as the "Good stuff" was limited. Supply and demand, it works for all products even luxury goods. Along with these fibers, The Purists created the best Flannel on the linen market. The Flannel is natural cotton color so that means never ever bleach. If you launder it properly, you absolutely feel like sleeping on pure cashmere. This flannel is not badly priced so it is worth adding a set to your flannel closet to use for the most desirable and restful sleep nights. Legna trademark is what you would compare to the silkiest fabric as it folds into a little tiny puddle on the floor when dropped. Legna is made from the managed forests of Italy. Legna in classic solid has done so well that there are more. Legna Seville scroll pattern, Legna Agadair (again travels! history!), Legna Prieta crackle glass look, Legna Balfour check look, and in so many colorways that it will be hard not to find your choice. Be prepared, it is not cheap even on a sale you will spend for a set. Some like to start out with Pillowcases and then see if it is the sheets for you. Don't forget, they will last for a very long time. Difficult to rip, easy to launder wrong, never feels harsh, and only gets better with time. Silk will have a run for the money from Legna. If you are intrigued from this exclusively designed manufacturer, be sure to seek them out. You deserve to know about the best manufacturers as a luxury shopper. If you love linen, see Leitner Germany is the best.
