About St Geneve Nocturne Ecru Silk Sheet Set

The St Geneve Nocturne Ecru Silk Sheet Set provides a sumptuous and sophisticated sleep experience. The layers of silk encapsulate you as you comfortably sleep. The Nocturne Ecru is made by a German mill which has been specializing in silk since 1923.

What is Silk? Silk is an extremely soft and luxurious fabric. The Nocturne Ecru is made from the Mulberry silk moth which lives on mulberry leaves. The silk filaments come from the cocoons built by these moths, generally known as “silkworms.” When the silk filament is ready to be removed from the cocoon, the filaments are carefully unwound from several cocoons at once to create a single strand of silk. The strands are then wound together creating a silk yarn. The weight of the yarn will vary depending on the number of strands used.

Silk is much stronger than any other textile fibre and will last for many years when properly cared for. It is perfect on warm nights as it can absorb up to a third of its own weight in moisture without feeling damp. As the coolest of all fabrics, it is also able to respond quickly to temperature changes. In the winter, it will feel warm and inviting. It is great for people with rheumatism and other aches and pains due to the fact it is much easier to turn in a bed dressed in silk.

St Geneve’s Nocturne Ecru Sheet Set is perfectly paired with the Nocturne Ecru Duvet Cover. All St Geneve Nocturne Ecru Silk Sheet Sets are sewn and finished in Canada.

Fitting for my Mattress’ Profile (Drop Height)

It is recommended to use a fitted sheet that is three to four inches deeper than your mattress. This allows margin for fabric shrinkage (after machine washing and drying) and for your mattress to maintain it’s feel without the sheet creating tension over the surface area. Please note that these measurements are approximations based upon typical application.

 
* Special sizing can be made upon request (made-to-order). Please allow additional time for your order. You may contact one of our specialists for further details by visiting our Contact page for telephone and e-mail information.

Care Instructions

St Geneve recommends that you dry clean your silk bedding. If you wish to retain the lustre and shine of silks, dry cleaning is ideal. If you prefer to wash your silk bed linens at home, they will lose some of their lustre.

• Select a mild soap that is specifically formulated for silk
• Do not use caustic soaps, bleaches
• Do not use Persil, Woolite or enzyme-based detergents
• Machine wash on a gentle cycle with warm temperatures and gentle cycles in a small load
• Wash silk bed linens on their own
• Do not put them in the washer with any other articles
• For best results, turn them inside out and launder them in a mesh bag
• Do not use any type of bleach or fabric softener
• Machine dry on a delicate setting using a cool temperature
• Silk dries very quickly
• Do not to over dry
