The bed, finally, made entirely of silk. A complete parure in twenty-two mommes — duvet cover, fitted sheet, two pillowcases — laid out the way the housekeepers at the old palace h otels used to lay it: cool to the hand at first touch, warming in slow accord with the body, the kind of cloth that registers a sigh as much as a movement. The fitted sheet sits flat without rucking; the duvet cover has the architectural fall of cloth that has earned its weight; the pillowcases close on hidden zippers, the way the signature does. Light comes in late and finds the bed sheened, never glossy — silk does not shout. By the end of the first week the household has redistributed itself: the dog sleeps elsewhere now, the morning conversation is quieter, and the bedroom has, without ceremony, become the most considered room in the house. Fabric: 100% mulberry silk, 22 momme, Grade 6A — OEKO-TEX certified throughout the parure. Details One duvet cover with mother-of-pearl button closure and interior corner ties One fitted sheet with all-around elastic, generous depth pocket Two housewife pillowcases with hidden zippers Four bed sizes — Twin, Queen, King, Super King Care Hand wash cold with a pH-neutral silk detergent, or entrust to a silk-trained dry-cleaner. Tumble drying and direct sun will shorten the cloth's life — dry flat in shade. Iron inside-out on the lowest setting between uses. The fullest expression of the maison — the pillowcase ritual, extended to the whole bed. Show more
