The Buying Guide For Sheets

1. The Fiber & Weave
One of the greatest variables in a sheet's hand (the feel of the sheet) is the fiber and the weave. Tastes can vary widely between these. For some, a silky, opulent feel is a must. For others, a relaxed, laid back look is the ideal. Not to mention, certain fibers are better for warmer climates and those who sleep hot. At ANICHINI we source the best sheeting in each of these categories, below is our guide to selecting the best one for you.

2. The Source Of The Fiber
As with most things, the source is important. Not all cotton is created equal. Here at ANICHINI we only use long staple cotton for our cotton sateen, percale, and twill sheets. You can read more about the important of long staple cotton and the types of cotton here.

3. The Thread Count
We have spent a lot of time here at ANICHINI trying to dispell the myth that a sheet's thread count is a marker of it's quality. You can read more on the truth about thread count here. While a higher thread count does not mean that a sheet is better or worse (it is the quality of the cotton that matters), in some cases it can be something to consider when choosing a sheet. For example, a percale sheet with a lower thread count will be lighter and cooler than one with a higher thread count which will have a heavier hand.
