What is sateen?
)
If you prefer your bed linen that is soft, smooth, and luxurious, then you will love sleeping in our cotton sateen. But what exactly is satin and how does it differ from other textiles? Here is everything you need to know about this wonderful quality.
What is sateen?
Sateen is tightly woven with one thread over, and three or more under. This creates a fabric characterized by a delightfully soft and smooth feel with a beautiful sheen.
What distinguishes Mille Notti's sateen?
We weave our sateen with 100% combed cotton. This process involves meticulously combing the cotton fibres to retain only the longest and strongest strands, a crucial step in ensuring the highest quality sateen.
Our selection of sateen bed linen is ranging from 340 to 800 threads per square inch, signifying not just exclusivity but also different fabric properties that come with varying thread counts. Through years of experimentation, we've achieved the perfect balance and refinement in our sateen.
How does it feel to sleep in sateen?
Sleeping in cotton sateen is an incomparable experience - a feeling that simply must be experienced. The sensation is exquisitely soft and luxurious, enveloping you in an elegant embrace with a noticeable sheen finish.
How do I care for my sateen bed linen?
Sateen requires a bit more care than percale and linen. Machine wash, stretch, and line dry. To maintain the quality and sensation, iron or mangle the bed linen while it´s slightly damp. This will flatten the fibres, enhancing and preserving the fabric's sheen. Do not tumble dry.
