Pretty Little Green Things

I haven’t really gotten too much into bedding and linens yet.  It’s a big topic with so many manufacturers, so many reviews, so much complexity and so much disagreement.  Instead of joining in the debate, I’d rather just show you what I think are the most beautiful, luxurious and well made products out there, never mind thread count and all that.  So to start, I’m excited to show you Sefte, a luxury bedding line from Spain (but sold throughout the US).  What I love best about this company, besides the fact that everything they make is beyond stunning, is their commitment to social and environmental practices.  Their gorgeous bedding is made from organic cotton and intricately hand embroidered by Vietnamese women using traditional techniques.  And their beautiful throws are made of super soft alpaca wool from the Andes and hand knit or woven by Peruvian artisans.  I could go on, but I’ll let their pictures speak for themselves.  Enjoy!

It’s probably good I don’t own any of their bedding.  I might never make it out of bed if I did!

Here’s a detail of their gorgeous embroidery.  It’s so perfect!

Here are a few of their luxurious throws

I love the pattern and detail of this blanket

I realize it’s so hot out right now and the last thing you want to look at is a pile of blankets, but I just couldn’t resist this last picture.  So beautiful!
