Silk sheets are a slip into luxury

Silk sheets are made of floss that is naturally warm, lightweight and hypoallergenic. Silk sheets are available in light and luxury weight for your personal warmth level.

Quality silk sheets come with a high thread count, and are woven with only pure silks. For example, 100% Sandwashed silk is wrinkle free and seamless, while Charmeuse has 580 threads per square inch that sets it apart from other silks. Sheets can come in soft colors like rose for the ladies, or crisp tailored colors like ivory blue for the gentlemen.

Silk sheets are very delicate and can be dry cleaned only, including the flat top sheet, fitted bottom sheet, and pillowcases. An alternate styles of silk is stain that tends to be cheaper, despite the varying price range. Pure silk will not only cost you more to buy, to clean and keep up as well.

Once you’ve pampered yourself with silk sheets, you may want to add a matching comforter, filled with high-grade silk floss. They are hand layered to ensure your warmth and hand tacked with pure silk to prevent shifting.
