Linens within reach

Since 1891, Sferra has created linens fit for the Vatican and the White House, to name two of the Italian firm’s clients. Last year, the company launched 1891, a collection with more visual punch and less sticker shock. Selections from the line are marked down 10% to 50% at the H.D. Buttercup semiannual sale, which runs through Jan. 21. The St. Tropez king duvet set, $270, shown here, sports a damask print in cheerful blue and pink. It pairs with the Rendezvous king sheet set, $207, a modernist take on the wedding quilt pattern in 400-count cotton sateen. The pleated and embroidered Petticoat bed skirt is $175.50. Decorative pillows start at $64. 3225 Helms Ave., L.A., (310) 558-8900.
