We do not artificially soften our fabrics with silicon, formaldehyde or toxic chemicals. At Himeya, you’re experiencing the fabric in its purest and most natural form, finished with natural plant extract finishes. Our fabrics will continue to soften with each wash.
Both percale and sateen are made using the finest ethically sourced cotton – the difference is a result of how they’re woven.
Our percales are made with 100% pure upland cotton in a classic one-over-one-under weave. Crisp, lightweight and cool to touch, our percale sheets soften with each wash. Percale is also very breathable and will get softer with continued use. Several brands use synthetic finishes to expedite this process, but at Himeya we have chosen to avoid such treatments on our products.
Our sateen sheets are made with 100% long-staple pima cotton in a four-over-one-under weave. Soft against the skin, our luxuriant sateen sheets are naturally wrinkle-resistant, with a subtle sheen that gently reduces with each wash.
Our sheet sets with a flat sheet and one or two pillowcases (basis size) are pre-bundled, but you can effortlessly mix and match these with our fitted sheets, printed and solid pillowcases, and duvet covers. A large part of our bedding collection be purchased a la carte, so you can mix and match as you like!
