Each story starts from what Dedon publishes about its collections: the designer, the materials, the pieces and the care advice. We add planning notes for US homes and leave out anything we cannot check.

We print no prices and no lead times. Both change with fiber color, fabric and freight, so you get them in writing with a quote.
