Madapolam Butterfly cotton: fabric for matching bed linen

Madapolamolam is the name of a cotton fabric from India, precisely from the homonymous village near Narasapur, where the East India Company owned a factory that produced this type of fabric. England later specialized in its production.
The material is soft and light, mainly used for making bed linen sets or for personal use, but also to embroider handkerchiefs or as a base for printed fabrics, usually used in shades of white or pastel, like light blue and light pink.

The cotton canvas was made with fine and precious yarns and then whitened, using the weave typical of linen. The same texture and warp makes the fabric suitable to absorb liquids such as ink and paint.
Now, Madapolam fabrics are made everywhere, even dyed and slightly heavier: Italy, for example, is a major producer, especially as regards export.

Perché scegliere il cotone per la biancheria da letto

The best choice for sheets for your own bed falls on natural fibers, such as cotton, linen and hemp, as these absorb excess moisture and release it in small doses into the atmosphere, helping to keep your body dry, especially on the hottest and sultry days

Cotton is obtained from mature plant capsules and is composed of 95% cellulose.
It is light, soft to the touch and able to absorb sweat for good. In addition, it is not irritating to the skin and is very resistant to washing at high temperatures, which help to eliminate microorganisms responsible for skin infections and allergies. Synthetic fibres, on the other hand, accumulate moisture and make sleep less comfortable.

The same applies not only to sheets but also to pillow cases.
As for the plots, a great classic of bed linen for the bedroom are the printed sheets with flowers or delicate patterns, to ensure a romantic and relaxing atmosphere.
