Husk Linen Union Swatch
Warm, mellow and naturally inviting, our Linen Union bed linen in Husk brings gentle warmth and effortless elegance to the bedroom. Inspired by the soft golden tones of harvested grain, this versatile neutral creates a restful, light-filled space and layers beautifully with earthy hues, crisp whites and natural textures. Combining the feel of pure linen with the easy-care characteristics of cotton bed linen, Linen Union offers the best of both worlds.
Linen bed linen has enjoyed something of a renaissance in recent years, but it can be trickier to wash and iron, and can look crumpled very quickly, which is why Reed’s Linen Union sheeting – a clever blend of linen and cotton – is the perfect alternative to pure linen sheets. Linen Union has the beautiful texture of linen, yet is much easier to care for, launder and iron than pure linen bed linen. We were first commissioned to create this bed linen by The Savoy Hotel in London, during a flax shortage that made their usual pure linen bed linen impractical. The resulting sheeting, named Linen Union in a nod to its fusion of flax and cotton, has gone on to become one of our best-selling signature fabrics. Today, as well as the original classic white bed linen ordered by The Savoy, it is available in a range of beautiful pastels, timeless neutrals and contemporary shades to suit every bedroom.
I think Husk sits nicely alongside Pebble but has its own identity. Where Pebble feels cooler and more stone-like, Husk has a soft, sunlit quality with subtle golden undertones, making it feel warmer and a little more organic without becoming yellow. It should work well as part of a cohesive collection of Reed neutrals.
Colour Schemes
Husk is a beautifully versatile neutral that brings warmth and light to any bedroom. Inspired by the soft golden tones of ripened grain, it has a gentle sun-kissed quality that feels both calming and contemporary. Its understated elegance makes it an easy foundation for a layered, natural interior, whether paired with crisp whites, textured linens or deeper earthy shades. For a timeless, tonal scheme, we suggest combining Husk with Pebble in Linen Union, whose soft taupe hue creates a sophisticated, harmonious palette. Alternatively, pair it with White Linen Union or White 400 thread count percale for a fresh, airy look that feels effortlessly refined.
Why choose Linen Union?
This wonderful cloth was designed by Peter Reed in 1983 as an alternative to pure linen sheets for The Savoy Hotel in London. It’s made using a combination of cotton warp yarns and 100% linen weft threads that gives the feel of pure linen, yet it is much easier to iron and more crease resistant. Our Linen Union fabric is a mix of 60% linen sustainably sourced from Belgium and 40% long staple cotton, which offers the luxurious feel of pure linen and the launderability of cotton, as well as plenty of other benefits for your sleep. Linen’s long fibres allow air to circulate through the sheeting, making it exceptionally breathable and ideal if you’re a hot sleeper, or your home is in a warm climate. What’s more, the heat-regulating properties of linen helps keep you cooler during hot weather and warmer on cooler nights. So, sheets containing linen are a fantastic choice for every season.
