Inside this Article:
In the world of luxury linens, few names carry the cachet of Matouk. It is one of our best-selling brands here at Fine Linen and Bath, and with good reason. Matouk sheets and home linens are widely renowned for their material, craftsmanship, and legendary quality. Among dozens of styles in Matouk’s impressive collection, one stands out as a perennial best-seller: Matouk Lowell. Today we’ll be taking a close-up look at Lowell and exploring the secrets behind its enduring popularity.
Matouk Lowell Sheets: Luxury Bedding Admired and Desired
Matouk Lowell has earned its status by delivering undeniable comfort and by embodying the qualities that make Matouk linen so desirable: quality, innovation, and beauty. Lowell represents the marriage of two beloved fabric types; it features a crisp, cool 600 thread count Milano percale base accented with a one-inch border of Nocturne sateen. The visual and tactile contrast is elegant and captivating. Lowell speaks to Matouk's understanding of what makes truly exceptional bedding: an ideal balance of comfort, durability, and style.
Serene Luxury: Matouk Sheets Pair Percale and Sateen
Matouk Lowell masterfully leverages the qualities of both percale and sateen weaves to maximum effect. Percale sheeting is known for a cool, crisp feel that connotes the finest luxury hotel bedding; percale sheets are wonderful for hot sleepers and grow softer and more comfortable with repeated washing. Sateen weave bedding, in contrast, is heavier and warmer with a beautiful drape and a silky feel; it makes a bold statement by reflecting light and holding rich, intense colors. Lowell delivers the best of both worlds. The base of Matouk Lowell is a 600-thread-count Egyptian cotton percale fabric woven in Italy with a tasteful sateen trim made from Nocturne, which is Matouk’s signature sateen style.
The result of this unique pairing? Cool-to the touch cotton sheets that deliver comfort, breathability and softness, with a sophisticated border adds luster and depth. Lowell comes in 40 color combinations: Ivory cotton sheets with Ivory sateen trim; Bone with Bone sateen trim; or White Milano percale with your choice of a Nocturne sateen tape border in 38 shades raging from subtle neutrals to bold, intense hues. The collection includes sheets sized Full to Cal King; duvet covers; and four sizes of shams for decorative pillows. The Lowell bed linen collection includes fitted sheet options in 14” and 17” pocket depth to fit most mattresses.
Unparalleled Versatility: Designing with Matouk Lowell Sheets
At the heart of Lowell's enduring popularity is its remarkable adaptability. This collection isn't just bedding; it's a canvas for personal expression that empowers you to create a bedroom that is uniquely yours. The many shades of sateen border choices allow for endless styling potential. Here are a few of our design team’s favorite suggestions:
- Create a monochromatic look by matching the border color to of your Lowell sheet set to the shade of your walls or furniture.
- Accessorize with the matching Matouk Nocturne pillowcases or shams to add dramatic pops of color to your bedding set.
- Personalize Lowell bedding by adding a monogram to your Matouk Lowell flat sheet, pillowcase pair, or Lowell duvet cover (our design team can assist you with monogram style options and the timing for monogram orders).
- Layer with a coverlet and shams in either Nocturne matelassé (see below) or a complementary style like Petra, which can be used in cooler weather to warm up your bed and switch up the look.
- Let your imagination free and create your own unique look by pairing Lowell with other Matouk styles based in Milano percale, including Aziza and Mirasol, with its oversized scallop detail.
- Carry the Lowell theme to your nightstand, vanity table, or bathroom with a Lowell tissue box cover.
