Please note: Queen set includes: One fitted sheet, one flat sheet, and two pillowcases.
The Orkanen (Hurricane) pattern by Carina Seth-Andersson is meant to symbolize the disorder caused by a violent storm; though, oddly, many find the sounds of rain and thunder to be a peaceful and comforting lullaby. Made from 100% cotton percale, these Orkanen-printed sheets will also rock you to sleep with their soft yet crisp composition. The neutral grey and white colorway is equally soothing, and is easily paired with any bedding thanks to its modern, minimal print.
Queen Fitted Sheet measures: 80" L x 60" W x 16" Depth (203 x 152 x 41 cm) Queen Flat Sheet measures: 102" L x 90" W (259 x 229 cm) Standard Pillowcase measures: 30" L x 20" W (76 x 51 cm)
About Percale: A high-quality weave, percale has a noticeably tighter weave that allows for a higher thread count which makes the sheets softer to the touch. Medium in weight, the fabric is matte with no additional sheen or shine but the texture is very smooth and able to resist warping and washes exceptionally well.
Care: Machine washable. Follow instructions on tag.
The bold, effusive prints and textiles of Marimekko are the first to come to mind for many when thinking about Finnish design. Founded in 1951 by Finnish couple Viljo and Armi Ratia, the name Marimekko translated literally means "Mary-dress." Marimekko’s impact reaches beyo... More Marimekko
For bedding in addition than the mandatory quality cotton I prefer soft neutral designs. This sheet set fits the key requirements. Thank you

Cool as percale should be, but fabric is rough

I hope that Marimekko can change back to a smoother cotton percale. Two older sets of their sheets I have owned were printed on much nicer cotton. These sheets are light and cool but rough. Also, while gray fits contemporary decorative schemes, it would be nice to see warmer neutrals or light pastel tones in some patterns.
Pros
The price was reasonable for this brand and for percale sheets on sale this summer.
Cons
Rough, scratchy texture after the second laundering (just got these sheets).

I have had several sets of Marimekko sheets, and love their prints. This set (Orkanen) is a soothing but interesting print, goes well with modern (and not modern) decor. This set was a little bit harder to fit on my deep mattress, but it did make it without any extra fabric to stuff under the middle of the long sides of the mattress. Not too big, and more importantly, not too small, but just takes a little more effort.

Very nice quality sheets, which seem to go with everything! The print is small and from a distance almost appears to be solid.
