Throws
Your throws are perfect companions for moments of relaxation and require suitable care to preserve their softness and original appearance. Before using them for the first time, we recommend checking the instructions on the care label.
Most throws can be washed at 30°C or 40°C, depending on the material. Choose a gentle cycle and a suitable detergent to protect the fibres. Avoid overloading the drum to ensure an even wash.
Air drying is recommended to preserve the textile’s suppleness. If permitted by the care label, tumble drying at a low temperature is also possible.
Cushion covers
Cushion covers are an easy way to refresh your home décor while protecting your filled cushions. Before washing, remove the cover and close the zip to help protect the fabric.
Always follow the instructions on the care label. Washing at 30°C or 40°C is generally recommended, depending on the material. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleaching products on coloured models.
After washing, allow your cushion cover to air dry before putting it back in place. Depending on the material, ironing at the appropriate temperature can help restore a neat finish.
