Jacquard Bedding

What is jacquard?

Jacquard is a refined weaving technique where intricate patterns are woven directly into the fabric using a specialized loom, rather than being printed onto the surface. This artistic method intertwines different colored threads to create a durable, weighted structure, an opulent drape, and an exquisite texture.

Is jacquard good for bedding?

Yes, jacquard is an excellent choice for luxury bedding. This meticulous weave is known for its structural integrity, opulent texture, and sophisticated aesthetic. Unlike printed patterns, jacquard is carefully woven together to create a weightier, more resilient textile that resists wear while maintaining its plush feel and timeless style.

What is the difference between jacquard and damask bedding?

Jacquard is the broad term for any textile woven on a jacquard loom to create intricate, multi-colored patterns, ranging from organic shapes to complex modern designs. Damask is a specific subtype of jacquard weave characterized by its use of matte and lustrous threads and monochromatic floral, botanical, and classical motifs.

Is jacquard breathable for hot sleepers?

Jacquard can be breathable, but it ultimately depends on the quality of the fibers used. Frette uses premium materials, like long-staple cotton and silk, to enhance breathability. Many of the bed linens in our jacquard collection feature a luminous jacquard front paired with a high-quality sateen backing, providing ultimate cooling comfort directly against bare skin.

In addition to jacquard bed sheets, we offer a wide selection of breathable, high-end sheet sets, including quality percale sheets made with long-staple cotton to deliver crisp coolness for everyday luxury.

How do you care for jacquard bedding?

Because luxury jacquard bedding features intricate patterns, proper care is vital to preserving its finish. To care for your jacquard bed sheet sets and accessories, follow these care guidelines:

Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle.

Use mild liquid detergent.

Wash your jacquard bedding inside out to protect the delicate face of the woven pattern.

Never include garments with abrasive components like zippers or hooks in the same wash cycle.

Avoid powdered detergents, fabric softeners, bleaches, and other harsh chemicals.

Line dry your linens out of direct sunlight, or tumble dry on low.

For an impeccable finish, remove your jacquard bedding from the dryer while still damp and steam iron on the reverse side on a warm setting.
