Kids

Bedding

Cotton, linen and other natural-fiber bedding without polyester microfiber or unnecessary stain treatments.

Children's bedding should make the fabric, filling and finishes easy to understand.  We favor washable natural materials and value independent textile testing.  Choose for the child's age and bed: bedding for an older child is not automatically suitable for a crib, where loose blankets and decorative pieces do not belong.
