It started with a hotel pillowcase. In a small riad in Cairo, Yasmin lay awake — not because of the heat, but because of how absurdly soft the cotton felt. Back in Amsterdam she couldn't find anything like it — not in stores, not online. So she went back.
Today we work directly with two families in the Nile Delta who have been growing Giza cotton for generations. No middlemen, no blended fibres — only the long, fine threads Egypt is famous for.
Our sheets are woven by a family business near Alexandria, then dyed with OEKO-TEX certified colours and inspected by hand. The result: textiles that grow softer the longer you use them.
We believe luxury isn't about price, but about choices — less, better and made to last for generations.
