CARE & MAINTENANCE
The maintenance guide
Caring for your laundry properly extends its lifespan.
For quality sleep, La Chambre Française recommends changing your bed linen once a week and airing your room daily. What's more pleasant than falling asleep in fresh sheets!
Textile decoration also needs to be maintained; re-fluff a down cushion, brush a mohair blanket, wash a bedspread... Small gestures that will be assets for the ambiance of your room.

Before use
- Soak your laundry overnight in cold water.
- Machine wash cold, without detergent. Your laundry will be free of all manufacturing additives, the colors will be stabilized, and the feel will be softer.
During use
- Wash colours separately (whites, light and dark colours) and adjust the temperature accordingly (40° maximum for colours and 60° maximum for whites).
- Wash all the items in your set at the same time to maintain the same shades.
- When choosing a detergent, choose one that doesn't contain optical brighteners or bleaching agents, which tend to wash poorly and wear out colors. Today, there are many detergents that are environmentally friendly and gentle on your laundry.
- To air dry, shake out your bedding and hang it up. Prolonged exposure to direct light will cause colors (including whites) to yellow.
- For tumble drying, dry your set alone to limit unwanted creases.
- Iron your laundry while it is still damp or use a filtered water spray to make ironing easier.
- To remove certain creases, protect your dark colors or avoid shining delicate materials, use a damp cloth.
- Washed cotton does not require ironing. It will be even more attractive with its iconic slightly wrinkled appearance.
