King Bed Sheets

Throughout the years, "King" has been used to describe anything that is superior in size - in paintings, mattresses, and cigarettes. In fact, one of the most popular origin story is that the term "King-Size" rooted from the then new cigarette's length, which King George VI from England fancied. However, this disregards the fact that the concept of "King" in reference to bigger sizes was already in existence way before longer cigarettes were available.

If you're wondering how "King" and "Queen" became popular in the bedding industry, sources claim that these sizes made headlines in the 1960's simply because the names sound like royalty. This is why they are often associated with elegance and greatness. 

They give you an ample amount of wiggle room. With adequate space comes comfort, thus, you won't have to restrict yourself as you take your much-needed rest. You are free to stretch and breathe as you please while keeping body aches at bay. 

Moreover, a bigger bed in a large room elicits grandeur. If you're the type of homeowner who enjoy the finer things in life, then a luxurious King Bed can instantly win your heart. 

They are all large bed sizes with a few distinctions in dimensions and purpose.

• King Size Bed (182 cm x 190 cm): Suitable for two sleepers 
• California King Size Bed (183 cm x 213 cm): Suitable for taller individuals 
• Super King Size Bed (200 cm x 200 cm): Suitable for people who want adequate sleeping space

King beds are only 30 cm wider than queen beds but both of them extend to the same length (190 cm). They can both fit two people though the latter is more ideal for couples sleeping closely together or a parent and a child sharing a bed. 

Since Queen Beds are much narrower, King Sheets won't make a snug fit. They will be slightly loose on the sides so adjustments will be needed wither by sewing or adding implements. It is best to find bedlinen that perfectly matches the mattress size. 

No. King Beds are wider and longer than Standard Double Mattresses. The former is equivalent to two adjacent twin beds so expect it to be more spacious (around 6 inches wider) than a Double or Full-Sized Bed. 

King Sheets measure 183 cm x 200 cm x 40 cm (Width x Length x Depth). They perfectly fit King Beds that are 182 cm wide and 190 cm long. 

Yes, King Sheets extend to 200 centimetres long. Meanwhile, Super King Sheets and California King Sheets are slightly longer at 201 cm and 213 cm respectively. 

In general, a thread count between 300-600 would make a high-quality bedding. Beware of overly high thread counts as they are more likely heavily marketing-driven or manipulated by manufacturers. Poorer quality multi-ply yarns are often used to inflate the numbers.
