In 1689, English diplomat, Paul Rycaut visited Hamburg in Germany where he first experienced sleeping under a duvet. He sent his friends back in England some bags of eiderdown with instructions on how to make their own duvets and he also tried to sell the duvets himself. Unfortunately for him, the British people were not keen to embrace this new concept. It was prohibitively expensive, so instead, they opted to carry on using the more affordable sheets and blankets.

Cotton sheets have a more traditional, preppy vibe. Percale and brushed cotton are best suited for rooms with a classic décor, while sateen sheets would perfectly complement a more modern bedroom.
