Hemp Bedding

Hemp is one of the oldest and most durable textile fibers — coarser than linen at first, but it softens significantly with repeated washing and develops a relaxed, lived-in quality that is the point of the material rather than a compromise. At Lulu and Georgia, the hemp bedding collection brings together hemp and hemp-linen blend sheets, duvet covers, and pillowcases chosen for the breathable, temperature-regulating quality of the fiber and the casual, considered aesthetic of the finished textile.

What hemp bedding does Lulu and Georgia carry?

The collection includes hemp and hemp-linen blend duvet covers in solid natural and earthy tones, flat and fitted sheet sets in hemp and blended constructions, hemp pillowcases in standard and euro sizes, and coordinating shams and bed skirts in select styles. Hemp bedding is available in natural undyed colorways and in a curated palette of earthy tones that coordinate with Lulu and Georgia's broader bedding and home textile collection.

What are the benefits of hemp bedding over linen or cotton?

Hemp is more durable than cotton and similar in durability to linen — the fiber is strong enough that well-maintained hemp bedding lasts for many years. Hemp is highly breathable and moisture-wicking, making it a good choice for warm sleepers. Like linen, hemp softens and improves with washing — after several wash cycles, the fiber has a broken-in quality that cotton rarely develops to the same degree. Hemp is also more sustainable to produce than cotton, requiring significantly less water and no pesticides in typical cultivation.

How do I care for hemp bedding?

Wash hemp bedding in cold or warm water on a gentle cycle; avoid hot water, which can shrink the fiber and weaken the weave over time. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry — hemp dries quickly and benefits from air drying to maintain the fiber's natural texture. Do not use bleach. Slight wrinkles and texture variation are inherent to hemp and linen-blend textiles and contribute to the relaxed, lived-in aesthetic. Iron on low heat while slightly damp if a smoother finish is preferred.
