You can order two different cushion covers. Standard or Oxford.
Peter Reed `Oxford style’ cushion covers with a decorative flange are sewn throughout with traditional mitred corners. Their construction requires the assembly of three separate pieces of fabric and skillful sewing. The end result is a flange that rests on the corners when placed on the bed, unlike the usual Oxford construction which can create a “rabbit ear” effect.
The unrivaled long staple length, the fine combing of the cotton, the high thread count, the very special weaving of the edges result in an extremely soft but hard-wearing cloth. Generous hems, cord seams, double topstitching and safety stitching for durability. ‘Oxford style’ pillowcases sewn with traditional mitered corners throughout.
The cotton used to make Peter Reed bed linen comes directly from the Egyptian Nile Delta. This area, with its rich alluvial soil and natural humidity, produces a unique and lustrous cotton growth that is one of the finest fibers in the world. Egyptian cotton is ideal for use in bed linen as it “breathes”, is dust-free and still thrives better with frequent washing and use.

Care Instructions

Colored bed linen made of long-staple cotton can be washed up to 60°, white up to 95°. As with all materials, the same applies to long-staple cotton: it will last longer if washed at a lower temperature. What the material does not like are detergents with optical brighteners, they bleach the colors strongly and the fabric becomes light. Creasing: Long-staple cotton likes sufficient residual moisture. Do not pack the machine too full so that the fabric can move, do not spin the laundry too hard or for too long. If you want to iron it, iron the items on the cotton setting of your iron when they are still a little damp.
