Cotton

What cotton weaves does MATTEO offer?

Crisp percale (Tru and Nap), soft sateen (Sei and Organic Cotton Sateen), and specialty weaves like Antik Matelassé's cotton-linen jacquard and Cucina's waffle weave, each with a distinct hand and finish.

How do I choose between percale and sateen?

Percale has a lighter, crisper, more matte hand and breathes well for hot sleepers. Sateen has a smoother, silkier surface with a bit more warmth retention. Ordering swatches of each is the easiest way to compare.

Is MATTEO's cotton bedding garment-dyed?

Yes, across every cotton line, MATTEO garment-dyes and finishes pieces with non-toxic dyes, which produces a natural shade variation of about +/- 10% between dye lots.

How do I care for MATTEO cotton bedding?

Wash on a lukewarm, gentle cycle with colors separated. Bleach is safe on white cotton only; skip products with chlorine, alpha hydroxy acids, or benzoyl peroxide on colored pieces.
