Luxury Egyptian Cotton Bed Sheets Made for Your Mattress
A fitted sheet may appear simple, but the quality of the fabric and the accuracy of the fit can make a noticeable difference to how comfortable and well-dressed your bed feels. Our 1000 thread count Egyptian cotton bed sheets combine a dense, smooth fabric with the option of a carefully tailored fit.
Unlike many mass-produced sheets, our fitted sheets are manufactured in the UK and can be made for standard beds, European mattresses, unusually long or wide beds and completely bespoke mattress sizes.
What Does 1000 Thread Count Egyptian Cotton Feel Like?
Our 1000 thread count fabric has a smooth sateen weave, giving it a soft feel, an elegant drape and a subtle lustre. It feels more substantial than a lightweight cotton percale sheet and is an excellent choice for customers who prefer bedding that feels indulgent, silky and reassuringly luxurious.
The fabric is made from 100% Egyptian cotton. Its fine cotton fibres can be woven into a dense, smooth surface that feels comfortable against the skin while providing the durability expected from premium-quality bed linen.
Benefits of Egyptian Cotton Fitted Sheets
Smooth and Soft
The sateen weave creates a beautifully smooth sleeping surface with a soft finish and gentle sheen.
Substantial Luxury
A 1000 thread count gives the fabric a richer and more substantial feel than lighter everyday sheets.
Naturally Breathable
As a natural cotton fabric, Egyptian cotton allows air to circulate and feels comfortable throughout the year.
Made to Fit
Choose the correct size and mattress depth to help prevent loose fabric, strained corners and sheets slipping from the bed.
Standard, Deep and Bespoke Fitted Sheet Sizes
Our Egyptian cotton fitted sheets are available for far more than standard single, double, king and super king mattresses. We regularly make bed sheets for:
- Small single, large single and long single beds
- Small double and extra-long double mattresses
- European and IKEA mattress sizes
- Emperor, large emperor and Caesar beds
- Adjustable, profiling and specialist beds
- Caravan, motorhome and boat mattresses
- Custom-shaped and made-to-measure mattresses
For particularly deep mattresses or beds fitted with a substantial mattress topper, view our extra-deep 1000 thread count fitted sheet, available with 40cm, 50cm and 60cm pocket depths.
How to Choose the Correct Fitted Sheet Depth
Before ordering, measure the mattress from its upper sleeping surface to the underside of the mattress. Include any topper that will remain on the bed beneath the fitted sheet.
The fitted sheet pocket should be deeper than the mattress itself so that there is enough fabric to tuck securely underneath. A sheet that is too shallow may pull away from the corners, while one that is excessively deep can leave unnecessary loose fabric.
For a less common mattress size or depth, enter your measurements when ordering or contact us for help choosing the best fit.
Create a Complete Egyptian Cotton Bedding Set
Complete your bed with coordinating pieces made from the same premium fabric. Pair your fitted sheet with a 1000 thread count Egyptian cotton flat sheet or choose a matching 1000 thread count duvet cover for a consistent luxury finish.
Caring for 1000 Thread Count Egyptian Cotton Sheets
Always follow the care instructions supplied with your bedding. Wash similar colours together using a suitable mild detergent and avoid overloading the washing machine, as the fabric needs room to move freely.
Line drying helps minimise creasing. When tumble drying is required, use a low temperature and remove the sheet promptly at the end of the cycle. A warm iron can be used for a crisp, polished finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these sheets made from 100% Egyptian cotton?
Yes. This luxury range is made from 100% Egyptian cotton woven into a smooth 1000 thread count sateen fabric.
What is the difference between Egyptian cotton and ordinary cotton sheets?
Egyptian cotton is valued for its fine cotton fibres, which can be spun into smooth, strong yarns. The finished fabric can feel softer and more refined than many standard cotton sheets, although the weave and overall construction also affect how the bedding feels.
Is 1000 thread count bedding suitable for every season?
Yes. Egyptian cotton is a natural and breathable material. However, 1000 thread count sateen is a dense, substantial fabric and will feel heavier than a lighter cotton percale sheet.
Do you make deep Egyptian cotton fitted sheets?
Yes. We can supply fitted sheets for deep mattresses and mattress toppers, including selected sheets with 40cm, 50cm and 60cm pocket depths.
Can you make an Egyptian cotton sheet for a non-standard bed?
Yes. We manufacture fitted sheets for many specialist bed sizes and can also make sheets using your own mattress measurements.
Is this a fitted sheet or a flat sheet?
This category contains fitted sheets with an elasticated hem designed to fit around the mattress. Matching 1000 thread count flat sheets are available separately.
Are these genuine single-ply 1000 thread count sheets?
Yes. The fabric achieves its 1000 thread count using single-ply yarns rather than several lower-quality strands twisted together to produce an inflated figure.
Should the fitted sheet depth match the exact mattress depth?
The sheet should normally have some additional fabric to tuck underneath the mattress. Measure the full mattress depth, including any permanent topper, and choose a pocket depth that provides sufficient tuck-under.
Do 1000 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets crease?
Yes. As a natural cotton product, the fabric can crease during washing and drying. Removing it promptly from the machine, line drying and ironing while slightly damp can produce a smoother finish.
