Paisley Duvet Cover
Frequently Asked Questions
What fabric is the Paisley Vintage Linen Duvet Cover made from?
The Paisley Duvet Cover is 100% linen, woven using a 28 single-metric yarn in both the warp and the weft. This balanced weave produces a fabric that is soft without sacrificing structure. Each piece is garment-washed and dyed using non-toxic dyes at MATTEO's dyehouse, a process that opens and softens the fibers at depth.
Is linen a good material for a duvet cover if I sleep hot?
Linen is one of the most breathable natural fibers available for bedding. Derived from the flax plant, it is naturally moisture-absorbent and regulating: it draws heat away when you're warm and retains warmth when you're cool. For hot sleepers or humid climates, a garment-washed linen duvet cover like the Paisley Vintage Linen is a practical choice year-round.
What sizes does the Paisley Duvet Cover come in, and which size should I order for a Cal-King or Full bed?
The Paisley Duvet Cover is available in Queen (90 x 94 inches / 229 x 239 cm) and King (108 x 94 inches / 274 x 239 cm). MATTEO cuts its duvet covers generously, so a King works well on a Cal-King bed and a Queen fits a Full bed. Check the dimensions of your insert before ordering to confirm the fit you prefer.
How do I wash and care for the Paisley Vintage Linen Duvet Cover?
Wash in lukewarm water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, separating lights and darks. Do not use bleach or products containing chlorine bleach, alpha hydroxy acids, or benzoyl peroxide, as reactive garment dyes are not resistant to whitening agents. Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly to reduce wrinkles; line drying gives the best result. If you prefer a crisper look, press while slightly damp on the Linen or High iron setting.
What makes the Paisley design on this duvet cover different from a standard printed pattern?
The Paisley motif has Persian origins and takes its name from the Scottish town of Paisley, which reproduced the repeating teardrop-shaped design on textiles for decades. MATTEO's version is woven into the Vintage Linen fabric rather than surface-printed, keeping the design subtle and the texture intact. Darker colorways include a contrasting white topstitch that adds a second layer of visual detail without overwhelming the pattern.
Does linen bedding get softer over time, or does it feel rough at first?
Linen does get softer with each wash and use; it is one of the defining qualities of the fiber. MATTEO's Vintage Linen begins that process early through its dyehouse washing technique, which penetrates and softens the fibers before the duvet cover reaches you. Most customers notice a meaningful difference in hand feel after the first few washes.
Is the Paisley Vintage Linen Duvet Cover hypoallergenic?
Yes. Linen is naturally hypoallergenic and antimicrobial, making it a strong option for people with sensitive skin or allergies. MATTEO also uses non-toxic dyes throughout the garment-dyeing process, avoiding harsh chemical finishes that can irritate skin. The Vintage Linen fabric contains no synthetic blends; it is 100% linen.
Is the Paisley Duvet Cover available in limited quantities, and will it be restocked?
The Paisley Vintage Linen Duvet Cover is a limited-run design. Once the remaining stock sells through, this colorway and pattern will not be reordered. Currently available colors with stock include Coal, Bay, Oat, and White in select sizes. If a specific color or size shows as unavailable, it has sold out for good.
