Traditionally, satin comes in two varieties. Most satin that you'll encounter in the bedding industry is made from polyester, and is a low grade fabric. Cranium Furniture Linens does not manufacture bedding in polyester satin, but rather the higher quality Acetate satin.
Specifically, our satin is "Bridal" satin, which is the grade used in making bridal gowns. It is composed of acetate, and is a heavier, thicker, more luxurious satin than the polyester. It is a more delicate fabric than more commonly used sheet materials, and it is vulnerable to abrasion. It is not intended for everyday use, and will wear much more quickly than other fabrics. Just as you shouldn't wear a bridal satin wedding dress on an everyday basis, you shouldn't plan on using bridal satin sheets as your everyday bed covering.
It has two definite sides to it. The correct or "top" side is frictionless and bears a strong luster. The reverse side is somewhat dull, and bears the grain of the fabric.
Bridal satin is only available to us in 45" wide bolts, and thus, all sheets made of Bridal Satin must have a center seam. This center seam is reinforced, and generally does not cause a problem, but you should be aware that the sheets will come with it.
Many of the colors of Bridal Satin that we offer have been dyed exclusively for our use, and are therefore unique in the industry.
- Care and Cleaning:
- Cold water wash
- Line dry, or cool dryer setting
- Darker colors should be washed separately. Adding 1 cup white vinegar to wash will help eliminate dye bleeding.
- Do not let the fabric come into contact with undiluted detergent, fabric softener or other chemicals. Always pour detergent or fabric softener into water, not on fabric. Strong chemicals, such as nail polish remover, paint thinner, etc, will destroy your satin sheets almost instantly.
- Rough surfaces will abrade your satin sheets and cause them to wear more quickly.
