Rest Easy
Sheets That Are Soft On You -- And The Environment
You can sleep peacefully in Coyuchi linens knowing that you’re nestled in organically grown cotton. The Point Reyes Station company produces a full line of luxurious and comfortable cotton bed linens, throws, blankets, baby bedding, towels and robes.
We particularly love the damask and sateen sheets that get softer with each washing. And you’re not limited to white and cream anymore: you can now punch up the color and still stay organic. The wisteria jacquard pattern comes in lavender, nearly the exact color of the flowers themselves. Complete the ensemble with a slightly darker lavender blanket, and add crisp contrast with white sateen lavender marrow stitched cases, flat sheets and shams. You’re stylish and safe.
Coyuchi is fussy about their cotton: they pay premium prices to small-scale growers for their organic cotton fiber to encourage practices that protect not only the environment, but the farmers, their families, and their communities from exposure to toxic agricultural chemicals. Cotton uses 25% of the world’s insecticides. Now, wouldn’t you rather slip into organic cotton sheets?
