SFERRA Giotto: The Key to Perfect Sleep Temperature
Hey there, cool kids. And by "cool kids," we mean those of us who -- no matter the season -- crave a frosty bedroom for their perfect night's sleep. There's something undeniably refreshing about slipping into bed in a cool room. The contrast between the chilly air and the warm weight of the sheets and blankets is our definition of bedtime bliss. And sleep experts agree: they say the ideal bedroom temperature for optimal sleep is somewhere around 65° F. This helps your body maintain its natural thermal regulation during sleep, promoting deeper and better rest that works with our circadian rhythms.
This all sounds wonderful until you consider the fact (based on our informal and highly subjective research) that many of us "cool bedroom" sleepers wind up with spouses or partners who are the exact opposite. You know the type: bundled up, never warm enough, gets up after you doze off to crank up the heat/turn down the AC until it feels like a terrarium and you wonder if you are in fact married to a reptile.
But not to worry! Fine Linen and Bath is here with the ideal sheets for cool-temperature bedrooms: SFERRA Giotto sateen hemstitch bedding. Whether you're trying to accommodate a warm-blooded partner or simply looking for the perfect cool-temperature bedding, SFERRA Giotto is the cozy luxury you need.

SFERRA Giotto Sateen: Luxurious Warmth for Cool Bedrooms
Before we dive into the specifics of SFERRA Giotto, let's talk about how sateen weave differs from the more traditional percale, and why it works so well in cooler bedrooms:
Percale sheets are known for their crisp, cool, and airy feel. They have a matte finish and a lightweight, breathable quality that helps dissipate heat. Percale is the better choice for hot sleepers or warm summer nights.
Sateen sheets, on the other hand, have a silkier texture, and a smoother feel with a subtle sheen. The sateen weave also makes them warmer, in part because they drape close to the body. Sateen cotton sheets also have a luxe, romantic look to them. In a cool bedroom, cotton sateen sheets provide just the right amount of insulation without overheating.
Why SFERRA Giotto Sheets are Ideal for Cool-Temperature Comfort
That balance of luxury and comfort for cooler bedrooms is where SFERRA Giotto shines. These sheets are made in Italy from extra-long-staple cotton, for a warm touch and an absolutely lustrous look.
"We like to say that SFERRA Giotto sheets are pleasantly weighty," said Helena Hendricks, Associate Brand Manager at Fine Linen and Bath. "Compared to percale sheets of the same thread count, Giotto sheets are slightly warmer with a dense, more opulent feel that works beautifully in cooler bedrooms in every season."
SFERRA Giotto Craftsmanship: Unparalleled Quality in Sateen Sheets
SFERRA Giotto bedding is fashioned with the same superior materials and craftsmanship that built SFERRA's reputation as a legend in home textiles. From the extra-long-staple cotton to the luminous sateen weave to the signature hemstitch bordered trim, no detail is overlooked.
The rich drape of SFERRA Giotto feels warm and indulgent on your skin while the luminous sheen adds an air of elegance to your bedroom décor. These are heirloom sheets that are made to last. Like most SFERRA sheets, Giotto sateen sheets are easy to care for; they can be washed in your machine using a gentle cycle and detergent made for fine fabric. Follow the care instructions and never use fabric softener or dryer sheets. Even better? The silky sateen drape releases wrinkles quickly, which means Giotto sheets require little to no ironing.
Giotto Sheet Collection: Versatile Styles for Every Bedroom
SFERRA Giotto sheets offers a wide range of sizes to suit your needs from Twin through California King. Giotto comes in a range of shades -- including White, Ivory, and classic neutrals -- that complement any style bedroom décor. The SFERRA Giotto fitted sheet comes with a generous 17" pocket. The sheet set collection also includes pillow shams for four sizes of decorative pillows; duvet cover; bed skirt; and Giotto fabric by the yard. The SFERRA Giotto flat sheet, pillowcases, Giotto duvet cover, and shams are finished with an elegant single-line hemstitch for a subtle touch of refinement.
"The rich neutrals of Giotto's color palette perfectly showcase the depth and rich luminosity of the sateen," said Helena Hendricks. "The overall effect of this bedding is supremely sumptuous."
