Why direct

The same cloth, without four markups

A linen sheet set at this quality usually passes through a converter, an importer, a brand and a retailer before it reaches you, and each takes a margin. We buy directly from the mill and ship from Minneapolis, which is most of the reason the price looks the way it does.

What customers report after a year

4.7 out of 5 from 3 reviews on our own store.

Softer every wash

Four years of weekly washing and the sheets are noticeably softer than when they arrived. I have replaced two pillowcases and nothing else.

The repair programme is real

A torn corner on a two-year-old duvet cover, repaired free and returned in nine days. I did not expect them to honour it.

Peter V.

Colour varies between batches

Exactly as they warn on the product page, but worth knowing. Order together if matching matters to you. The cloth itself is excellent.
