Silk momme - As silk fibres are much thinner in diameter than cotton, momme is used instead of thread count. Momme describes silk’s weight and density. The higher the momm, the more strands of silk per 100 yards of fabric, which means that the silk will be higher quality and more durable. Momme measurements range from 11-momme to 25-momme, with 22-Momme the ideal measurement for the best quality silk bedding or clothing.

 Bath robes are a must-have for relaxing after a bath or shower.   Bath robes come in a variety of styles, including kimonos, shawl collars, hooded robes, and more to suit personal preferences.  Bath robes are typically made from soft, absorbent fabrics such as cotton, terrycloth, or microfiber to provide warmth and comfort.

Styling Your Bed with Linen or Cotton

In the 18^th century, although usually made from wood, bedframes also started to be constructed using metal. Mattresses were stuffed with cotton and maids and personal valets no longer slept on trundles on the floor. The bed was not used for receiving visitors, but rather as a private space. In the 19^th century, the four-poster beds were less lavish, and metal bedsprings were invented. It was during the 20^th century when the water bed was created, as well as the air, innerspring, and memory foam mattresses, and now in the 20^th century, we are spoilt for choice!
