How to choose the bed that satisfies you
After a day of fatigue, we often say: "I want to go home and fall on the bed." In bed, we can feel relaxed and warm, can let go of all tension. If you don't want to be troubled by insomnia and toss and turn until dawn, you need a good set of bed products to give yourself a warm and comfortable comfort zone, and comfortable sleep will start from this. There is nothing better than a restful night's sleep, and the relaxing feeling of waking up at dawn, especially when you lie in a soft and delicate quilt, will you feel that you have been pampered by these beautiful bedding? If you want to choose a bed that will satisfy you, you should consider these factors:
First, The true quality of the fabric comes from its count and number of yarn, the higher the number of yarn, the finer the yarn, the better the yarn uniformity, the thinner the fabric woven with such yarn, the cloth is relatively soft and comfortable. The market is generally 30-40 pieces of low-grade yarn, more than 60 are high-grade yarn.
Second, the number of roots is the number of yarn per unit length, the larger the number of roots, the greater the density, the more durable, but because of weaving technical requirements and large yarn consumption, the cost is higher. Usually the home textile market is less than 200 ordinary twill fabrics, more than 300 belong to high-grade fabrics. The number of roots of the sheet is 1200, the density is too large, it will be hard, and it is very comfortable in 300 to 450 roots.
Most five-star hotel bed sheets are 300, 60. The simple way is to put the fabric on the lamp to try, the light does not penetrate, and it is almost a sheet that can be seriously rolled.
Good quality bedding will usually choose natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, silk and so on. Most bedding will choose cotton, cotton in the high quality fabrics are Egyptian long cotton and West Indian Island cotton and so on.
That is, our Chinese bamboo cotton, the Japanese called Tianzhu cotton. Japanese brands led by MUJI love to use this fabric, with soft, high permeability, tensile resistance, high moisture absorption and other general ordinary cotton does not have the characteristics, better than the general plain cotton fabric breathability and sweat absorption.
Pima cotton
The general term for Gepinte long staple Cotton (ELS), also known as American Egyptian Cotton, is hand-picked. Grows only in the United States, Peru and has limited production elsewhere. High density, soft fabric texture, smooth, good hanging, full toughness, skin comfortable and breathable. The fabric of cotton, the touch of tencel.
Egyptian cotton
Egyptian cotton is Egyptian long staple cotton, known as "white gold", the longest fiber can reach more than 35 mm, after making yarn, high strength, flexibility, is recognized as the world's best cotton. High-end bedding brands are very fond of fabrics made from Egyptian cotton.
Sea island cotton
Island cotton has always had the reputation of "cashmere texture, silk luster", although it is a natural plant fiber, but the oil content is as high as 0.65%, is the world's most luxurious and rare cotton varieties. It is native to South America, Central America and the Caribbean. Because it has been widely distributed in the southeast coast of the United States and its nearby islands, it is called island cotton. Island cotton thermal expansion and contraction performance is more outstanding, the fiber will be loosened when the temperature is higher, and will be tightened when the temperature is lower, playing a role in keeping warm. It accounts for tens of thousands of the global cotton production, the price is more expensive than silk and cashmere, the price of ordinary cotton may be 10,000 to 20,000 yuan per ton, the relatively high is 70,000 to 80,000 yuan per ton, and the price of island cotton per ton needs to be hundreds of thousands. A bed made of sea island cotton? That's like putting gold bricks over your body! The following bed products, which can be classified as luxury goods, are passed on by word of mouth among European royalty and nobility, and over time, gradually become the consumption target of people in pursuit of high quality life around the world. The rare materials and exclusive craftsmanship make them a symbol of noble taste and elegant life.

In the courtyard, decorative walls with baroque and geometric figures and Majolica pottery patterns with life interest are also the main designs.

Sferra romantic lace from Venice
Sferra from Venice was founded in 1891 by Gennaro Sferra. SFERRA products are not only popular in the upper classes of Europe, but also used in the tablecloths of the state dinner tables of the White House in the United States, and the bedrooms of the Vatican in Rome.

Yves Delorme The essence of French excellence
Yves Delorme is also one of the French boutique industry associations, which includes Luois Vuitton, Christian Dior, Hermes and other world-renowned brands. Yves Delorme's luxury experience truly represents a unique way of life, with a style that combines tradition and innovation, carrying the essence of French culture.

It brings together artistic inspiration from all over the world and selects fine fabrics to bring users a double noble experience of spirit and sense. Yves Delorme design prefers the fresh atmosphere of beautiful style, the unique use of flower elements, reflecting the simple French style.
Yves Delorme's Icelandic wild eiderdown quilt, known in Europe as "the top down", can only be seen in a few luxury department stores around the world, because it is produced in no more than 10 pieces a year. In Europe, there are many people who buy Yves Delorme Icelandic eiderdown quilt just for collection. Limited to 5 pieces throughout China, each worth 298,000 yuan.
To make such a quilt, dozens of experienced farmers spend two months in the spring sitting next to wild duck nests on the edge of a kilometer-long cliff in Iceland, collecting droppings from newly abandoned nests. As eider ducks are a rare species of wild animals, people try to protect the nests from other predators and birds, and keep the Icelandic wild ducks in a protected state for a long time during their growing cycle, and farmers can only collect the down left by the eider ducks naturally.
These fluff are sorted and collected through 68 manual processes, and only the best quality and colorless ones are selected as processing raw materials and sent to the sewing workshop. Then 30 old technicians with more than 20 years of sewing experience use a variety of complicated manual manufacturing methods, which takes about a week to complete. Its rare quality can be compared with diamonds.
Pratesi
Born in 1906 in a small town in Italy, Pratesi used his sheets for decades to impress the entire Italian aristocracy. Now it has also been a number of royal designated brands around the world.
European celebrities have always treated it alongside Ferragamo and Lamborghini, and there is a saying: "People who have not used Pratesi, even if you own Salvatore Ferragamo leather goods and drive Lamborghini sports cars, are not perfect to experience exquisite life."
All of Pratesi's cotton products are made of Sudan cotton, which only accounts for 2% of the high-grade Sudan cotton in the long and slender cotton. The cotton material is silky and refreshing, like an Angel brushing your Skin, so it enjoys the reputation of "Angel Skin". Angel Skin Sudanese cotton is only produced on the Nile River in southern Egypt, and is a cotton that can only be produced in the local climate and humidity. Pratesi selects the longest and strongest fibers from these cotton as bedding materials, and increases the number of yarn weaving to more than 680 pieces when weaving into cloth. With its complicated and laborious manufacturing technology, cotton production is only 10 meters a week, which can be described as a rare treasure for bedding!
In terms of color, Pratesi is inspired by the rich colors of the Tuscany Valley in Italy, the birthplace of the brand, and fills the hometown with a variety of colors like the color palette, combining a hundred years of exquisite technology to create a unique boutique. Each of its bedclothes is a classic, taking the famous Paradise series "Eternal Love" as an example, which is designed by the talented designer Athos Pratesi in the family. Due to the difficulty of obtaining raw materials and the complexity of weaving, this model is limited to ten sets per year, although there are large numbers of orders from all over the world every year. But it usually takes years to get one.
In terms of pattern, because Pratesi started out as an embroidery workshop, they were almost stubborn about every embroidery requirement on the bed linen. All embroidery is done by hand, and every apprentice involved in bed linen making must have at least five years of training.
In short, Yarn and count, Number of roots and Types of Fabric determines the quality of the bed. Of course, there are also more detailed parts, which will be covered in more detail in a later article.
