Silk bedding, on the other hand, is luxurious and smooth to the touch.   Silk bedding is a natural temperature regulator, warm in winter and cool in summer, suitable for all seasons.

 Hand towels are smaller in size and are mainly used to dry your hands after taking a shower. Hand towels are often placed near bathroom and kitchen sinks for easy access.  Hand towels are available in a variety of materials, including cotton, bamboo, and microfiber.  Hand towels are designed to be soft and gentle while effectively absorbing moisture.

Linen vs Cotton: Which Material is Right for You?

While sateen sheets are similar to satin sheets, they aren’t to be confused with one another. The satin weave structure (one under, three over) creates sateen sheets, but yarn is used rather than filament fibers. Despite the differences in material, sateen sheets are just as elegant and silky smooth as satin. They are less durable than percale sheets but also better for cold sleepers and cooler weather. 

During Victorian times, the Eiderdown quilt or duvet became popular in Britain though they did not replace blankets which were much heavier and warmer for the Victorians.

Brushed cotton bedding is a luxurious and comfortable choice for those looking to improve their sleep experience.  The soft comfort of brushed cotton sheets and brushed duvet covers make them a popular choice for those looking for a restful night's sleep.

Caring for Bed Sheets: Regular washing is vital. Depending on the material, most bed sheets should be washed in warm or cool water with a gentle detergent and either air-dried or tumble dried on a low setting. Avoid harsh chemicals or high heat, as they can break down fibers.

Unlike cotton sheets, the strength of linen lies in its loose weave. Because flax has its own structure, there is little need for densely knit threads to produce a smooth fabric. As such, linen never depends on thread count as a measure of quality. Most linen fabrics have a thread count of around 80 – 150, a much lower range than cotton sheets.
