Company Policies & Recommendations
Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets - Composition
Material Quality
Silk & Snow is a bedding company we respect for the incredible work and meticulous selection process they put into sourcing the best products, always choosing to work with smaller, family-owned, manufacturers, to ensure control and quality of the bedding they put into your home.
The Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets are crafted from 100%, harvested from hand, certified long-staple Egyptian cotton and made in Portugal. First, the Marinho family spins the cotton into yarn, which is then weaved into those high-quality sheets, using the luxurious sateen weaving technique, by the Costa family.
The certification, provided by the Cotton Egypt Association, ensures the authenticity and superior quality of the cotton used. Long-staple fibers are renowned for producing smoother and more durable fabrics as the long staple means less loose ends though the products, contributing to the luxurious feel of these sheets.
Weave and Thread Count
Utilizing a sateen weave (our favorite cotton weaving technique!), these sheets are silky smooth, with a subtle sheen, giving them a luxurious feel and look. The 300-thread count is the ideal balance between softness and breathability, ensuring comfort without compromising durability. This thread count is optimal if you are seeking a lightweight yet substantial fabric.

The Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton bed sheets are made of 100% certified long-staple Egyptian Cotton, certified by the Cotton Egypt Association and hand-harvested, then further spun and weaved by small family-owned businesses in Portugal. Using the sateen weave, the sheets are durable and incredibly soft to the touch, with a slight sheen to the eye. |
The Egyptian Cotton is breathable and naturally moisture wicking, making it easy for the body to regulate its own temperature. They are a great option on hot nights, but their slightly thicker sateen weave help keep you warm and cozy on cooler nights as well. They are great year-round sheets for hot and cold sleepers alike. |
There are a couple of reasons for the silky-smooth feel of the Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets. Their long staple means less loose ends during weaving, turning into a luxuriously soft fabric. And because Silk & Snow manufactures them using the sateen weave, they are thicker and luxuriously soft to sleep in. Expect some of the softest cotton out there! |
The Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets can be machine washed on cold, with a mild detergent. You can tumble dry them on the low tumble setting. |
Available in up to 7 earth-tone colors that are fun to mix and match if you add the duvet cover and shams, you can purchase the Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets in all residential sizes from Twin to California King. |
Softness: How Do the Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets Feel?
Initial Feel
Upon first touch, the Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets exude a luxurious softness that makes you want to jump right in bed! The sateen weave contributes to a smooth texture that glides gently against the skin, making bedtime a moment to look forward to, and making it hard to get out of bed.
The other reason of the extreme softness is the long-staple Egyptian Cotton. Its longer fiber means less loose ends in the finished fabric, for a softer and smoother cotton than most you are used to.
Longevity of Softness
One of the standout features of these sheets is their ability to maintain softness over time. Even after multiple washes, you will notice that the fabric retains its silky feel without pilling or wear, attesting to the high-quality materials and craftsmanship we are used to with Silk & Snow.
Temperature Regulation
Breathability
The natural properties of Egyptian cotton, combined with the 300-thread count and sateen weave, result in a fabric that is both breathable and moisture-wicking. This ensures a cool and comfortable sleep environment, particularly beneficial for those who tend to sleep hot, as the fabric helps your body regulate its own temperature.
Seasonal Comfort
These sheets are versatile enough to provide comfort across different seasons and for all sleepers, whether sleeping hot or cold. Their breathability keeps you cool during warmer months, while the substantial fabric offers adequate warmth when temperatures drop, making them suitable for year-round use.

Washing Instructions
Caring for the Silk & Snow Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets is straightforward. Silk & Snow recommends machine washing on a cold cycle with like colors.
