 Fine Bedlinen by Royal AppointmentPeter Reed only use the finest yarns to produce high quality bedding, producing some of the very best high thread count Egyptian Cotton, the thread count of a cloth is the number of intersections of yarns (Warp and Weft) in an area of one square inch. Linen with more than 180 threads per square inch are termed a percale fabric, and more than 250 per square inch 'Super Fine Percales'. Super Fine thread counts are quoted after natural washing shrinkage has occurred. Thread counts relating to cloths which contain multi-ply yarns can be misleading as they do not reflect a pure measure of intersections in the weave. Peter Reed sheeting constructions have been produced over many years and are established as industry and hotel standard qualities. The standard range includes thread counts of 180 , 220 , 400 and 540, Peter Reed sheets are chlorite bleached in traditional kiers using soft water. This slow process produces a full white bleach, which will not yellow with age as can happen with textiles which are peroxide bleached, more conventional and lesser quality cotton bedding products do not have this process.  Luxury and QualityLuxury is not all about just the fabric, little details such as the hems make all the difference, all Peter Reed Egyptian Cotton Sheets have hems that are sewn with at least 12 stitches per inch to ensure durability throughout the laundering life of the article. Our 1¼" wide bottom hem and 3" wide top hem provide a rich finish to the sheets and help them to be ironed more easily by hand or calendaring machine. Another touch of class to tempt you is that all the ranges are finished with classic cord stitching which is sewn with 28 stitches per inch. In the days when all linens were bleached white, differing numbers of rows of cord stitching were applied to help identify the various grades of sheets. Luxury Peter Reed Bedlinens continue this tradition today with extra rows of cording for higher thread count cloths, this is still in use today in the luxury hotel sector. To ensure that the quality will last for many years to come Peter Reed duvet covers and standard pillowcases are finished with a double over lock and safety stitch for long durability when laundering and ensures a pristine presentation when dressing your bed. Other pillowslips such as the 'Oxford style' pillowcases are sewn with traditional mitred corners throughout. Their construction requires assembly of three separate pieces of fabric and skilful sewing. The end result is a flange which supports itself at the corners when placed on the bed, unlike the simpler 'mock' Oxford construction which uses a larger piece of material and is sewn through the fabric to create an oxford style effect a simple and less expensive manufacturing process. The Peter Reed three piece construction looks like no other pillowcases, simply elegant with a touch of class. Caring for your linen is very important, every piece of bedding has its own wash care label with both European and US standard instructions, good cotton can be washed frequently at a high temperature, use a low concentrate detergent to protect the linen, ironing is always recommended while the sheets are still slightly damp and always iron on the reverse side of the embroidered areas for superb results.
