Thread count  as described here on the site refers to the amount of threads per square inch of the fabric. (The weft and the warp of the fabric). The higher the thread count the higher the quality and luxury feel to the fabric - this is reflected in the price.

Polycotton 50/50 = 50% polyester and 50% cotton (thread count 150)
Polycotton percale = 50% polyester and 50% cotton (thread count 180) percale
Egyptian cotton 180 percale: any fabric consisting of 180 threads or more per square inch is classified as 'percale'.

Beautifully soft, the 100% Egyptian cotton  sourced from Egypt in the region of the River Nile, renowned throughout the world as the finest due to its long staple fibres which yield to a soft, silky fabric - absorbent, durable whilst being lustrous to the touch, it really is the ultimate in bedroom style and sensuality.

Washing Instructions

Egyptian cotton 800 count: Machine washable at 40 degrees. Do not tumble dry.
Egyptian cotton 400 count: Machine washable at 40 degrees
Polycotton: Machine washable at 50 degrees

Before placing the duvet covers in the wash, turn inside out. This protects the embroidery and design from piling.
We recommend that you do not use bleach or harsh washing products and wash on a gentle to regular wash.


Ironing

To avoid excessive creasing use a cool down period in tumble dryers and remove the bedlinen as soon as the cycle has completed, fold, lay flat and iron whilst fabric is still damp. Given this care your linen should remain beautiful for many years. To iron the embroidered designs, either a)  turn duvet cover inside out and iron on the underside of the embroidery with the iron set at a warm setting or b) iron around the embroidery.


Designs

Should you see a design which you would like stitched on a) a different fabric or b) a different colour - please email  info@lynshailer.co.uk  with  product number to enquire whether the service is available for the design you are interested in.


Customizing / Personalisation

Monogramming is available - please go to the 'Egyptian Bed Linen' button. We have a variety of beautiful fonts to choose from. If you would like a name embroidered instead of initials please email info@lynshailer.co.uk with your request.

Recommendation

It is recommended that a top sheet (flat sheet) in addition to a bottom sheet accompanies the duvet cover. All the products are machine washable.
