Full details
This Morris & Co. Strawberry Thief Cotton Cover Set in Red is designed for those who appreciate timeless, artisanal patterns and wish to bring a touch of nature-inspired elegance to their bedroom.

FAQs
What is the thread count of the cotton percale?
The duvet cover set is made from 300 thread count cotton percale.
What is included in the set?
The set typically includes one duvet cover and a pair of matching pillowcases (size dependent on the set purchased).
What is the inspiration behind the Strawberry Thief design?
William Morris was inspired to create the original fabric after observing thrushes stealing strawberries from the kitchen garden of his countryside home, Kelmscott Manor.
Are the pillowcases reversible like the duvet cover?
The description mentions matching piped Oxford pillowcases are included. Standard pillowcase pairs in reverse print are also available separately, suggesting the included ones may match the main design or a specific reverse.
Can I buy additional pillowcases separately?
Standard pillowcase pairs in the reverse print are available separately to complement the duvet cover set.
What sizes are available for this design?
The Strawberry Thief design is available in single, double, king, and super king sizes.
How should I care for my duvet cover set?
It is machine washable at 40°C, can be tumble dried on low heat, and ironed on a medium setting. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Duvet cover buttons are difficult to fasten.
Ensure the buttons are properly aligned with the buttonholes. If they feel stiff, gently work them back and forth. Avoid forcing them to prevent damage.
Pillowcase does not fit pillow snugly.
Verify you are using the correct size pillowcase for your pillow. If the pillow is slightly smaller, you can add a pillow protector or fold a thin towel inside to create a snugger fit.
Colour fading after washing.
Always follow the care instructions precisely. Wash at 40°C, use a colour-safe detergent, and avoid excessive heat when drying. Iron on a medium setting.
