Our Process

Where are Bella Notte’s fabrics sourced?

We source our fabrics from Europe and Asia, utilzing a variety of beautiful textures from around the world. Our decades-long relationships with vendors ensure that we are receiving the finest quality textiles.

Where are Bella Notte’s products made?

Our globally sourced linens have been artisan-crafted and dyed to order in Northern California since 1996. We're proud that we've worked with the same dye house and the same local makers for over 25 years! Our dye house is right down the street from where we cut, sew, and work together as a family-owned and operated business.

Are all products dyed to order?

Products purchased on bellanottelinens.com are dyed to order. Products purchased on Renewal by Bella Notte are pre-dyed.

What types of dyes are used?

We believe in conscious luxury and make sure to use only non-hazardous and low-impact dyes.

Our Colors

Are items from my order guaranteed to match?

When you place an order, all items of the same collection and color are dyed together. Each fabric absorbs the dye with a different saturation creating beautiful and complementary tonal variation.

If I place separate orders, will my items match?

Every dye load is unique, and items on separate orders are not guaranteed to match, even if they are the same color.

Why is there color variation between dye lots?

Our small batch process results in tonal variation. Swatches represent our range of colors, and are not guaranteed to match your order. We invite you to embrace this as the inherent beauty of our one-of-a-kind pieces.

Can I order a fabric or color swatch?

Yes! We encourage you to order fabric swatches to experience the quality, hand and unquie color of our products, and to see how our beautiful colors and textures look in your own home. Fabric swatches represent the possible range of our color palette, but may not be an exact match to your order. Click here to view our swatches.

Can you describe your unique colors?

WHITE — The forever-perfect bedding color, our classic White is crisp and clean, a timeless option in all of our textures.

WINTER WHITE — Wooly and warm, Winter White adds a subtle depth to your bedroom. Softer than classic White, and cooler than a cream, it’s an updated take on a timeless tone.

PARCHMENT —  Perfectly antiqued, it’s the neutral you’ve been looking for. Reminiscent of love-worn letters from another era, this creamy hue is tinged with a warm glow, pairing beautifully with all of our tones.

HONEYCOMB  — a golden hue that is earthen and vibrant at once.

PEARL — A soft neutral, the shade of an elegant garden rose, dyes rich and warm in our silk velvets, while leaning fair and soft in our cottons and linens.

ROUGE  — a blushing mid-tone pink, our color crush adds warmth to your space.

POPPY — Inspired by vibrant spice markets and refined by flora closer to home, Poppy is our nod to the lesser known red California poppy which is actually a deep orange.

FIG — Regal and lavish, Fig is a rich purple-garnet tone that richly saturates all of our fabrics, trims and threads.

FRENCH LAVENDER —  A neutral violet hue that varies in its intensity.

MOONLIGHT —  A glowing grey tone that varies in depth like the night sky under a moonlit reflection. Created to commemorate Bella Notte’s 25th Silver Anniversary.

FOG — Echoing the soft tones of our San Francisco skies, Fog is a neutral mid-grey, harmonizing easily with the entire palette.

CLOUD — Soothing and subtle, Cloud is a soft yet mature blue, reminiscent of a mild sky over the San Francisco Bay.

EUCALYPTUS — Inspired by the delicate green leaves of its namesake, Eucalyptus flows from a soft shade in our linens and cottons, to a shimmering green in charmeuse, to a rich blue-green in our silk velvets. Dyes fresh and sophisticated.

JUNIPER —   A profound green with a calming depth like an abundant forest. 

MINERAL — A soothing seafoam blue with grey undertones, this color transforms any room into a comforting sanctuary.

CENOTE — Named after the rich blue-green of magical underwater caverns in Mexico, Cenote is strikingly brilliant in charmeuse and richly saturated in silk velvet, a true study on the power of blue.

MIDNIGHT —  A rich indigo the color of a moonlit night, Midnight is an instant classic that adds both sophistication and interest to any ensemble. 

CORVINO — Italian for raven, Corvino is our sophisticated take on classic black.
