Kat Burki, one of Connecticut’s top interior designers, has just launched her home furnishing collections via KatBurkiHome.

Kat Burki’s sense of style is a mix of elegance and casual European flair. Her luxury bedding line consists of stylish elegant designs, formal yet very comfortable.

“I’ve always admired the attention to detail in traditional furniture making. I try to translate these techniques into a new category that is antique in design and silhouette and contemporary in spirit but will be sure to remain a classic,” .

On August 4th, catalogs will be made available nationwide. If you’d like to order for a catalog, call 1 888 881-7677.

Sateen or Satin? Many people do get confused by this. Both are luxury bedding types, but which one is better and which one do you need? Here’s how to easily distinguish between a sateen and a satin:

Sateen is a very smooth material made from cotton. It’s used more popularly for bed sheets and feels cooler on the skin.

Satin is also a smooth material coming from either rayon, silk or nylon sources. It is characteristically shiny and would be best used for accents like pillows and throws.

I’m told you can get luxury beddings at Alexandra Jordan for a wholesale price, so it should be worth checking out. The best thing is — they ship all over the world!

Alexandra Jordan is first and foremost a manufacturer of designer handbags but they do make 100% goose down comforters, they are in fact well-known for it.

They use 100% goose fill on their comforters, unlike some manufacturers who stuff and mix this with other materials to keep it heavy, but not exactly softer and better.

Our comforter’s are 700-750 Fill Power, some of the best in the industry. This means that our comforters are filled with some of the best quality down money can buy. A higher Fill Power means better, stronger, and larger clusters of Down. The higher the Fill Power, the better insulating power the comforter will have and the more durable the comforter will be. In fact, Down Comforters with higher Fill Powers such as ours, will last up to four times longer than comforters with lower Fill Powers (550 or less).

Their comforters are also hypoallergenic.

For those who enjoy the finest things in life —

Blanc de Chine does silk bedding, faux-fur throws, cashmere throws with matching pillows. The bring an absolutely romantic atmosphere into the bedroom. I have no idea how much they are or how pricey they go for or if I can afford it as these are custom made luxury bed linens but these are really ‘take-my-breath-away’ lovely bed items.

Forbes Magazine reports that design polarization is one of the latest trends in the industry today. When it comes to bedding, bed accessories and mattress purchases, consumers are now given plenty of options by stores selling lower-end  with very creative designs. It could be a great thing for consumers, but not so much for luxury companies.
