Linen Duvet Covers

The fabric

Two cloths, both 100% linen. The raw linen is 170 GSM, medium weight, in white and oatmeal — it starts crisp and softens over the first weeks of use. The stonewashed linen is 170 or 200 GSM depending on the color, washed before it is cut, and soft on the first night. What that wash does to the cloth, and why the weight does not follow the shade: what is stonewashed linen. What the weight means in use: what does GSM mean for linen sheets.

Colors

Sixteen. White and oatmeal in raw linen — oatmeal is a mélange of bleached white and gray yarn rather than a flat beige, which is why it reads warmer under a lamp and cooler in daylight: what color is oatmeal linen. The other fourteen are stonewashed and dyed through the cloth: Copper, Dark Teal, Dusty Blue, Dusty Gray, Dusty Pink, Forest Green, Graphite, Mineral Green, Olive Haze, Pearl Gray, Pink Rose, Sage Mint, Sky Blue and Soft Peach. Linen takes dye unevenly by nature and the stonewash lifts that further, so slight variation across a panel and between batches is the fabric, not a fault.

Construction

Each cover is finished with a hidden-button closure. Ties at the inner corners are available on request to secure the insert. Raw linen covers are cut 3–5% oversized and settle to nominal size after 1–2 cold washes; stonewashed covers are washed before anything is cut, so they keep the size on the label — why we cut oversized rather than pre-shrinking.

Sizes

EU and UK (200×200, 200×220, 240×220, 260×220 cm), US (Twin, Full, Queen, King, California King) and AU quilt-cover sizes. Every size we cut is in the linen size guide. Match the cover to your insert, not your mattress.

Care

Wash before first use — cold water, delicate cycle, with like colors. Tumble dry low. After the first washes, regular care at 40 °C (104 °F). Oxygen bleach is safe for white linen; do not bleach oatmeal or any of the stonewashed colors, and never use chlorine bleach on any of them. Full instructions: linen care guide.
