Why Frette?

Since 1860, the name Frette has been synonymous with luxury. Because of the company's long-standing passion for quality and industry leading innovations for producing fine linens, Frette has been the choice of Italian Embassies worldwide, and many of Europe's noble families. Frette also outfitted the Titanic, St.Peter's Basilica, the Orient Express, and the Queen Mary II.

Today, Frette bed linens can be found in the homes of the elite, and in many exclusive hotels, such as the Ritz in Paris, the Plaza in New York, and the Governor's House in Portsmouth.
