Material Guide
MATERIAL GUIDE
Create a peaceful and luxurious atmosphere with Balmuir's bedding. Cotton percale, cotton sateen, linen and silk are high-quality natural materials, each with their own unique features. Discover our material guide and choose the best bedding for your needs.
COTTON SATEEN – SOPHISTICATED SHEEN
Cotton sateen bed linen have an exquisite softness and subtle sheen to them, making them feel luxuriously soft against the skin. The high thread count 300TC ensures the highest quality.
COTTON PERCALE – THE HOTEL EXPERIENCE
Cotton percale is a smooth and extremely soft material that reminds you of luxurious hotel bedding. Tightly weaved percale fabric has a slightly crisp feel to it and a subtle sheen. Percale weaved fabric allows air to get between the duvet and your skin, making the fabric feel comfortably cool.
LINEN – AIRY AND ADAPTABLE
Linen is an ecological, long-lasting and strong natural fibre that gets softer as you use it. Linen is perfect for both winter and summer, as it feels cool during warm nights and comfortably warm when it’s colder.
SILK – FOR YOUR BEAUTY SLEEP
Made out of high-quality silk, Marbel pillow case ensures a good night’s sleep while pampering your skin and hair. Silk is a gentle natural material that is suitable for even sensitive skin.
THREAD COUNT (TC)
A fabric’s thread count tells you the number of individual threads per square inch. The higher the thread count, the better the quality.
MOMME (MM)
Momme is a unit used to tell the weight of silk. The silk used in Marbel products is 22 mommes, thick enough to withstand wash and care, but soft against the skin.
COSY BEDROOM
Decorate your bedroom into a calm space to relax in after a busy day. Make the bed with your favourite bed linen and add your favourite cushions and a bedspread. Balmuir's home textiles are available in neutral basic colours that are easy to spice up with seasonal colours. Ensure a good night's sleep with beautiful silk loungewear and finish off the ambiance with room diffusers and scented candles.
