The collection also includes tea towels, a table runner, napkins, wine bags, and framed artwork with scenes of Santa with cookies and reindeer.
“Norman Rockwell’s iconic, vintage artwork of Santa captures the magic of the holidays, reminding us of cherished traditions as we gather together,” said Monica Bhargava, Pottery Barn president.
Bedding shells and sheets are made from 75% organic cotton and 25% recycled cotton. Fills are constructed of 30% recycled polyester and 70% virgin polyester. The bedding is also Fair Trade Certified.
Table linens construction include 100% cotton and cotton/linen blends that also support the Better Cotton Initiative.
Holiday motifs such as poinsettias, red ribbons, and the scripted word “Noel” are integrated throughout the collection.
“Norman Rockwell captured the magic of the winter holidays,” said Margaret Rockwell, the late illustrator’s granddaughter-in-law and manager of the Norman Rockwell Family Agency. “His art will remind us of Christmases past and help us to prepare for a very special holiday this year.”
