Please note that we use a sterilizing process on our towels to ensure they are thoroughly sanitized for your comfort and safety. As a result, there may be occasional minor color fading. We appreciate your understanding and want to assure you that all towels are cleaned with the utmost care to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness.
Some of our pillows are filled with natural down feathers. While they're primarily white down, you might notice a few darker feathers showing through the white pillowcases—this is completely normal and part of the natural variation in down. We also provide synthetic pillows for those who prefer them.
