Best gingham linen blend duvet covers

Top pick: Fern Green & Dusk Blue Colour Drenched Gingham Linen Blend Duvet Cover — it's the only one that's actually green and blue, in a 55% European linen / 45% long-staple cotton blend, with coconut-shell buttons and inside corner ties. The colour-drenched check reads bold rather than sweet, and it's the best-reviewed of the linen ginghams here.

Who the others suit:

• Botanical Green Gingham — if you want the same linen blend for a fraction of the price and can live with green only; it's a single King size.
• Warm Blue Gingham — if blue alone is enough; smaller 200 x 200 cm size.
• Pine Green Pembroke — if you'd rather a quieter, classic green check with a full size run (twin to king).
• Elderberry / Berry / Honey — if you're open to a different colourway in the same Piglet linen blend.

Skip the cotton gingham and the plain linen sets — no linen blend or no check.
