Description
Orla's signature four-petal flower motif decorates this bedding face in a contemporary palette of deep navy, off-white and olive green whilst the bedding reverse features Orla's iconic Tiny Stem design in an olive green shade. Perfect for a classic, mid-century-inspired touch. Abacus bed linen is part of an exclusive collaboration with John Lewis & Partners that reflects their shared love of bold colour and a strong graphic style with Orla Kiely. This bedding is made from 100% cotton which imparts its inherent breathability to keep you cool and comfortable throughout the night. A 200 thread count means you'll experience a smooth soft surface come sleep time. The single size comes with one standard pillowcase. All other sizes come with two standard pillowcases. About Orla Kiely Hailed by many as the 'Queen of Prints', Orla Kiely is a prolific textiles designer who has won global acclaim for her kitsch and colourful designs. Drawing inspiration from nature, her Irish heritage and her grandmother, she has encapsulated these elements in her prints, giving the fresh, vintage-inspired twist for which she is famous.

Our Stylist Says
The Orla Kiely abacus duvet cover set is a fantastic choice for adding a touch of retro-inspired geometry to your bedroom. Its bold, graphic pattern works especially well in contemporary or Scandinavian interiors, where clean lines and playful shapes are key. I love pairing this duvet with neutral or muted tone bed throws and cushions to let the print stand out. For an added layer of style, consider mixing in some textured textiles like knitted throws or velvet cushions to soften the bold pattern. Practical tip: it's easy to update the look by changing the pillow combinations-try mixing plain, patterned, and colour-coordinated cushions for a chic, curated look that feels fresh and inviting.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
