Satin Jacquard - fabric for bed linen

In our time, bed linen, in addition to its immediate function, for example, to close the mattress, carries an aesthetic load. Quality products surround and envelop a person who goes to sleep. On a beautiful and hygroscopic linen is always a pleasure to relax. A luxurious bed linen, made in the technique of satin jacquard, can serve as a wonderful gift.

Fabric features

Once upon a time there was a cloth called satin. It was popular because it looked like an expensive atlas, but was much cheaper. Cotton and silk threads were used for its production, while silk was used for the manufacture of the atlas. The direct interweaving of the threads was exactly the same, but in satin cheap cotton was hiding on the wrong side. The fabric was most often used for making lining materials.

Jacquard weaving was invented by a weaver from France in the early 19th century. On the fabric appeared beautiful convex patterns. They could be floral, geometric and fantasy. Drawings were created thanks to a complex intertwining of threads. The fabric was dense, wear-resistant. Threads were used, naturally, natural: cotton, linen, woolen and silk. The thicker the thread used in the jacquard weave, the stronger it is, and the pattern is more convex. Jacquard fabrics immediately found wide application in the manufacture of table and bed linen, upholstery of upholstered furniture, ties.

Both of these interlacing were able to connect modern weavers and got a linen cloth called satin-jacquard. Satin gives a pleasant shine and smoothness, and jacquard - an amazingly beautiful convex pattern, obtained through the interweaving of yarn.

Fabric structure

The satin-jacquard composition is complicated. When weaving bed linen we use yarns and cotton (traditionally), and viscose or polyester, as well as blends, that is, the composition of the yarn itself includes both these components. Polyester is a synthetic product, but it has elasticity, strength, and wear resistance.

The fabrics in which it enters are more easily erased and dried, shrinkage becomes less, as does the deformation of any product, which means that the sheet and duvet cover will never warp. This is the property of satin-jacquard fabric due to its composition. Washing of such products is carried out at a temperature of 30 ° C, and the powder is preferably neutral.

Aesthetic properties

At once it is necessary to tell, that the fabric is very beautiful both in itself, and in execution of bed-clothes. It feels something royal. No words, luxury satin jacquard - a photo, perfectly demonstrates his elegant and festive look.

Such linen will be a wonderful gift for the newlyweds at the wedding: they need to get useful household items, so a set of linen made from satin jacquard fabric will be quite appropriate. Very elegant looks from this material white linen, as well as all chocolate and deep burgundy shades. But, as a rule, since this linen is considered to be a premium class, it is most often produced pastel shades - beige, golden, tender-green, light blue and pink.

The drawing can be woven from the same color as the whole set, but it can also be contrasted. In addition, the upper part of the kit is solved in one color, and the inner one in the other. It can be more saturated tone compared to the upper one. If embroidery is added to linen, then it will incredibly decorate the bedroom. It is also possible that the outer part is made of satin jacquard, and the one that is adjacent to the body is made of a smoother satin. This is also a very good option.
