Crafted with the finest quality materials and workmanship, your Peacock Alley matelassé is designed to be enjoyed for years to come. Proper care will ensure the longevity and luxury of your linens:

We recommend professional laundering by a professional cleaner experienced with natural fibers and luxury linens. Peacock Alley´s 100% Egyptian cotton matelassé coverlets and pillow shams are machine washable. However, we caution against home laundering, due to the size, weight and delicate nature of these linens. Agitator washers may damage the fabric. Home dryers can cause excessive shrinkage, and commercial dryers may burn the fabric.

For 100% Egyptian cotton matelassé, ask your cleaner for a "cold water block press," which will help retain the matelassé’s size and shape. For matelassé containing linen or silk blends, dry clean only.

All natural fibers will shrink to some extent. Peacock Alley´s coverlets are generously cut to allow for normal shrinkage of 3 to 5 inches in length and width. After laundering, the coverlet should fall just to the top of the bed skirt. Extra-deep and pillowtop mattresses will alter this drop.
