Everyone likes a good night’s sleep. Having the right mattress is of course important, but so too is the bedding. There’s nothing worse than trying to sleep under bedding that’s rough or uncomfortable against your skin, or bedding that makes you feel hot and sweaty.
Thankfully, the Bedeck 1951 bedding is most definitely not like these scenarios. In fact, it is super luxurious, soft, comfortable and a dream to sleep under.
Bedeck specialise in luxury bedding and bathroom products and has a 64-year history in the UK. Their 1951 collection of six designs, launched for AW15, is infused with global influences. The Kaveri bedding provides a nod to the orient, with its Asian style design.
The duvet cover and pillowcases are made from a linen mix jacquard, with a satin-like feel. The all-over jacquard pattern is lovely and the neutral cream tones provide a sense of warmth.
The bedding is 180 thread count, which is why it feels so soft to the touch. The front of the duvet cover is made from a mix of 54% polyester, 21% viscose and 25% linen, whilst on the reverse (the side you’ll be sleeping against) it’s 100% cotton.
As you can see, the design is very effective and eye-catching. It’s packed with detail, but the subtle colours stop it from being over-powering.
Everything in the range coordinates beautifully.
We love the way the Kaveri cushion coordinates so well, even though the design is different. It’s great that it brings a bit more colour into the mix too, especially with its metallic effect.
There’s a throw available too, in the form of a gorgeously soft Spice knit throw – perfect for draping over the end of your bed to ‘dress’ it, or to use as an extra layer on a cold night.
If the colours of the cushion and throw aren’t quite your cup of tea, you could easily opt for other items from the 1951 collection instead.
The Kaveri bedding is available in a full range of bed sizes, from single and double, to king and super-king size. Pillows are sold separately, but this does enable you to choose whether you’d prefer the Oxford design or Housewife pillows…or perhaps both to cover all bases!
Luxury bedding can be a bit of an investment and, when you’re spending more than you normally would, it’s good to know that it will last and wash well. We’ve put the Kaveri bedding to the test on that front too and put it through a wash.
We’re pleased to report that it came out very well. Somehow the creases seemed to drop out well without the need for ironing (most definitely a bonus!) and none of the softness or comfort was lost after washing it. It’s still a dream to sleep under and looks just as good as it did when it first went on.
As you’d expect with a luxury bedding range, normally the prices tend to be higher than standard bedding options, but the quality difference shines through.
If you’re tempted to invest in new bedding from Bedeck, now is the perfect time to do so, as the winter sale is on. There’s currently 40% off the Bedeck 1951 Kaveri bedding, which is a great saving on the usual prices.
A double duvet cover is now £66 (was £110), a king size is £78 (was £130).
The Housewife pillowcases are reduced to £9.60 (was £16) and the Oxford pillowcase is now £13.20 (was £22).
The Kaveri cushion is now priced at £30 (was £50) and the large spice knit throw is now £90 (was £150).

Agree the prices are much more accessible in the sale, but I do love it, that throw is gorgeous and could be used all over the house, not just the bedroom.
I totally agree quality bedding is just as important as a good mattress. This looks lovely and good to know it washes well x
It makes such a difference to have good quality bedding for a restful sleep. Sounds like you found your perfect one.
Oh that looks lovely – I especially love the cushion and how it co-ordinates and complements without being matchy-matchy. I agree that luxury bedding is worth the investment – it’s only recently that I (reluctantly) parted with some high quality bedding that I bought in (*cough, ahem) the 1990s, but it just washed and kept its colour so well it was such a joy.
Gosh, that lasted you well! Hopefully this will last a similar length of time.
I so need to update my bedlinen – it’s all stained and old. There is nothing quiet like snuggling into fresh sheets. Lush
Ooh, I’m not familar with Bedeck but it looks beautiful quality – really sumptuous and inviting, which is how bedding definitely should be! x
Sumptuous is a good description!
Great pictures! You can also get amazing household accessories from Sabichi.co.uk!
Gorgeous! Although I have a pair of trousers in a similar print and colour … I’d blend right in to your bed like camouflage 😉 I’m completely onboard with investing in quality bedding. It’s so worthwhile. We actually went as far as to visit the factory to buy our pillows so we could try them out and have them filled with the optimum amount of feathers for us (are we the saddest people, out there??!).
Ha ha, we need a photo of your trousers! That’s definite pillow dedication, never realised you could do that.
That. Throw. Love it x
Yes, it’s lovely!
This looks beautiful, it looks great quality and very comfy to snuggle up underneath.
We have just lost most of our bedlinen due to a damp problem in our house so I’m desperately looking for new linen.
I really want to treat myself to some good quality linen this time round – I know it’s an investment, but it will be so worth it.
I agree about having nice bedding – if you scrimp here it’s not so good all the times. Checking the thread count of the linen you’re buying is a must – the higher it is, the better, and the smoother too. There’s nothing that can beat getting into a freshly made bed. And getting good bed linen at a reasonable price is a bonus too #homeinterest
Designs are awesome. I totally agree quality bedding is just as important as a good mattress.
