Simply put, this is the finest cotton in the world.
Usually available only for the finest men’s shirts, our bedding made with GIZA 45 cotton is the softest, smoothest and most luxurious that you will ever find. From the longest staple cotton grown in the fertile valley of the river Nile to the master craftsmen in Italy who have woven it to its stunningly smooth finish. Cotton this beautiful defies thread count. Available in White and Ivory only; for a pure, dazzling statement. The Jacquard has a subtle floral toss pattern and is finished with the understated hemstitch. This divine sateen jacquard coordinates sublimely with SFERRA GIZA 45® percale and sateen. Woven to 700 threads per square inch.*

I purchased Giza 45 pillow cases to see if the Giza line was as good as advertised. It is unbelievable. Next are going to be the giza percale sheets....
