A Word About Thread Count

We are often asked about thread count, but this is largely irrelevant if you are comparing linen with cotton. By nature, linen has a lower thread count because the threads are thicker, heavier and more loosely woven.

As a matter of interest, our Superior quality Irish linen has 44 threads/sq.cm, (112 threads per sq.in.), weight is 160 gsm.

Despite linen's lower thread count when compared with cotton, Fegusons Irish linen is renowned for its strength - under normal domestic use, Irish linen is renowned for being much more durable than even the best quality cotton.

In short, if you want soft shiny sheets, opt for best quality cotton with a high thread count and very close weave.

If, on the other hand, you love the characteristic weave and heavier weight of pure linen against the skin, then this luxury bedding collection is for you. Indeed, as every linen lover will tell you, the attraction to linen is intensely emotional. There's something about linen's characteful weave and drape; its crisp coolness to the touch; its strength and luminosity.

The average retail prices elsewhere for exactly the same Irish linen items are considerably higher. A pair of double size pure Irish linen sheets alone would normally cost over Ł300. So these bedding sets are an absolute bargain. Furthermore, we charge only Ł2.50 towards the cost of delivery by courier service no matter how large your order.

Only flat sheets are available in this pure linen collection. This enables the top and bottom sheets to be alternated, thus extending the life of your bed linen. Fitted sheets tend to wear out sooner due to the repetitive friction of lying on them.

Please allow 3-4 weeks for delivery as all Irish linen sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers are made-to-order. Indeed, these special offers are exactly the same quality as the superior grade Irish linen sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers listed individually in the main Irish Linen Bedding section.
