FAQ
What is the “Moments” collection, and how does it differ from Christian Fischbacher’s other percale lines?
Moments is Christian Fischbacher’s entry point into their percale range — designed to deliver the core qualities of Swiss cotton percale (crispness, durability, clean matte finish) in a more accessible format without compromising on the fundamental construction standards the brand applies across all its lines. The “704” designation refers to the specific weave specification: the same high-density plain-weave structure used throughout the percale range, ensuring the fabric’s characteristic silky smoothness and tight surface integrity. What Moments prioritises is everyday usability — a complete coordinated set built to be used regularly, washed regularly, and to hold up to both without deteriorating.
Why does buying a complete set matter, and what exactly is included here?
This set comprises one duvet cover plus two 50×70cm pillowcases — everything needed to dress a bed from scratch in a single, coordinated purchase. The practical advantage of buying as a set rather than individual pieces is consistency: the duvet cover and pillowcases are cut from the same dye lot, meaning the steel grey is identical across all pieces. Sourcing components separately, even from the same brand, carries the risk of subtle tonal variation between batches. The pillowcase size of 50×70cm is the standard European format, fitting the most common pillow dimensions used in Georgia — worth confirming against your current pillows before ordering if you’re mixing with existing bedding.
The price range is 1,269₾–1,774₾ — what accounts for the variation, and which size should I choose?
The price difference reflects size: a larger duvet cover requires more fabric, more cutting time, and more precise finishing to maintain consistent quality across a bigger surface area. The right size depends on your mattress and how you prefer your duvet to fall — a 200×220cm cover on a 160cm bed gives a generous overhang on both sides, while a correctly matched size sits more flush. If you tend to share a duvet or have a partner who pulls, sizing up is worth considering. At Sleep Gallery our consultants can advise on the right size based on your specific mattress and sleeping setup — a question that sounds simple but makes a real difference to how your bedroom looks and functions.
Why does a cotton percale set from Christian Fischbacher cost more than seemingly comparable sets from international retail chains?
The word “percale” on a mass-market label and on a Christian Fischbacher set describes the same weave structure but an entirely different product. High-street percale is typically short-staple cotton woven at lower density: it has the right name but not the right hand. Within one or two years of regular washing it roughens, thins at stress points, and loses the cool, smooth surface that made it appealing in the first place. The Moments 704 set uses 100% long-staple cotton processed and woven to Swiss standards — the density is genuinely high, the finishing is controlled, and the result is a set that retains its surface quality and structural integrity through years of use. The price difference is not a brand premium layered on top of identical fabric — it reflects a fundamentally different starting material and manufacturing process.
