Riley Home Sateen Sheet Set

The sateen weave features a higher concentration of threads on the surface, which creates a silky, lustrous finish and a heavier drape compared to the crisp, matte feel of percale. It is generally softer to the touch and provides more warmth, making it ideal for those who prefer a smooth, cozy sleep surface.

Yes, these sheets are crafted from 100% long-staple cotton, which is naturally breathable and moisture-wicking. While sateen is slightly heavier than percale, the high-quality cotton fibers allow for excellent airflow to help regulate your temperature throughout the night.

Long-staple cotton refers to the length of the individual cotton fibers. Longer fibers allow for fewer exposed ends, resulting in a smoother yarn that is less prone to pilling and fraying, ensuring your sheets stay soft and intact even after repeated washing.

Like most high-quality cotton bedding, these sheets may develop slight wrinkles after washing. To minimize this, we recommend removing them from the dryer promptly while still slightly damp and smoothing them out by hand or using a warm iron if you prefer a crisp, hotel-style appearance.

To preserve the luster and softness of the sateen weave, machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid using harsh bleach or fabric softeners, as these can break down the cotton fibers over time.
