Pillowcase cotton hemp

The combination of cotton (69%) and hemp (26%) with a small amount of linen (5%) not only provides this bed linen with a slightly pithy feel, but above all with a pleasant sleeping climate. Because with their moisture and temperature regulating properties, the materials form a perfect team: the skin-friendly, soft cotton also makes the fabric supple and grippy. The smooth hemp fibers (like linen) absorb a particularly large amount of moisture, but are also able to wick it away again quickly. And: unlike linen, hemp can also keep you warm. Thus, cotton hemp bedding supports a balanced sleeping climate, in summer as well as in winter.

But the visible contrast is particularly exciting, because the individual materials show up in the different stripes: Pure cotton is used to weave the light stripes, while natural linen is used in the weft for the natural-colored ones. A stronger, red weft thread made of linen contrasts the stripes, creating a subtle yet lively stripe pattern that easily blends into any bedroom. All pillowcases are finished with wooden buttons.

Sampedro is one of the most prestigious textile manufacturers in Portugal. What started in 1921 with a small linen weaving mill producing sheets and towels, has now become an international player in the home textile sector. As one of the first companies in Portugal, Sampedro also began to produce checked, striped and printed fabrics - a novelty (traditionally, people in Portugal tend to use white linen), which brought Sampedro some fame and also economic success. Today, the product range includes all textiles for hotel and private use, with bed linen still being one of the core competencies. Production takes place entirely at the company's headquarters near Guimarães in northern Portugal, a traditional European textile region. From the initial design to weaving, bleaching, dyeing and printing to finishing and making up, everything takes place there under one roof. Traditional weaving craft and the most modern textile technology intertwine in the processing coordinated and ultimately bring forth textiles of outstanding quality.
