Minimalist and modern, the Fontainebleau bedding design embodies refined and timeless elegance. Crisp white percale bedding is expertly embellished with appliqued banding. The banding is in Fusain, a silvery-black fossilized charcoal color. The Fusain color, against the pure white, is very eye-catching and modern. Fontainebleau duvet covers have a very high style layout of the appliqued banded lines on the front side. Applique means that the fussian colored bands are expertly sewn atop the white fabric. Fontainebleau flat sheets have the appliqued banding at the top edge. Fontainebleau shams have the appliqued banding on the cuff Fontainebleau fitted sheets are in the plain white percale bedding. The Fontainebleau bedding is named for the very famous Chateau de Fontainebleau in France. The appliqued banding on the bedding was inspired by the well known windows of the French palace. With a history of 900 years, the palace has been the home to French kings and even Napoleon I and Napoleon II. Today the 1,500 room Fontainebleau palace is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
