Product Information

Full details

This duvet cover set is for individuals who appreciate historical textile artistry and desire to bring timeless elegance into their bedroom. The key benefit is the exquisite floral design, inspired by 17th-century Indian chintz wall hangings, offering a unique and luxurious aesthetic. A potential caveat is that, as a cotton percale, it may require specific care to maintain its crisp feel and vibrant colors.

Troubleshooting

Duvet cover is difficult to insert

Ensure the duvet is not bunched up and is laid flat before inserting. Check that the duvet size matches the cover size.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

This is characteristic of new cotton percale. It will soften with subsequent washes. Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and appropriate detergent.

Colors appear faded after washing

Check that you are washing at the recommended temperature (max 40°C) and using a color-safe detergent. Avoid harsh chemical bleaches.

Duvet cover fasteners are not working

Inspect the buttons or ties for damage. Ensure they are correctly aligned before fastening.
