Why Clair de Lune Is a Trusted Choice for Timeless British Baby Bedding
Every parent dreams of giving their newborn a peaceful, cosy start. With Clair de Lune, that dream becomes beautifully simple. Known for its elegant, practical baby bedding and sleep solutions, this long-standing British brand blends timeless design with everyday functionality, perfect for modern families who value both comfort and quality.
At Little Gliders, we’re proud to offer a range of Clair de Lune favourites, from Moses baskets to organic cribs and soft nursery accessories. Whether you’re planning your baby’s first bedroom or searching for a gift that will be loved and used daily, this collection has something special to offer.
Designed and Made in the UK Since 1943
Clair de Lune has been a family-run brand for over 80 years, designing and making nursery products at its Manchester factory. What began with handcrafted bedding has grown into a full nursery collection that now includes sleep pods, folding cribs, blankets, and thoughtful gift sets.
The brand’s continued success lies in its commitment to UK manufacturing and its eye for practical design. In 2025, Clair de Lune further expanded its offering by acquiring East Coast Nursery, another respected British name in nursery furniture and accessories, bringing even more trusted products under one roof.
The Most Loved Products from Clair de Lune
Moses Baskets
A true classic. Clair de Lune’s Moses baskets, such as the Waffle Palm and Organic Palm versions, are lightweight, beautifully lined and made from natural materials. They make it easy to keep your baby close while sleeping, resting or moving from room to room. Parents often choose them for their breathable fabric linings, comfort-first design, and reliable quality.
Folding Cribs
For a portable, space-saving option, the Organic Folding Crib is a standout. With mesh sides for airflow, a soft yet supportive mattress and a fold-flat frame, this crib is ideal for both everyday use and travel. It’s a smart alternative to heavier bassinets or bulky bedside cots, especially in smaller spaces.
Cot and Crib Bedding
Soft, neutral tones and breathable fabrics define Clair de Lune’s bedding sets. Whether you’re dressing a cot, crib or Moses basket, you’ll find coordinating quilts, bumpers and fitted sheets in timeless styles like stars, stripes and delicate patterns. Everything is made with newborn comfort and ease of care in mind.
Blankets and Baby Essentials
Clair de Lune also makes some of the cosiest baby blankets around. Cellular knits, organic cottons and fleece options mean you can layer depending on the season. These pieces are not only nursery staples but also make brilliant new baby gifts.
Why Parents Trust Clair de Lune
Made with Care
Every product is carefully stitched and finished by skilled craftspeople using soft, safe materials. Attention to detail is shown in every seam and curve.
Organic and Sustainable Options
Many products are made using organic cotton and FSC-certified components, giving you confidence that you’re making an eco-friendly choice for your baby and the planet.
Reliable and Reviewed by Families
Parents repeatedly praise the brand for combining looks and practicality. One mum noted, “We had two Clair de Lune Moses baskets and love them. After months of daily use, we went back for another because the quality was just so consistent.”
Designed for Modern Nurseries
The brand’s colour palette and design sensibility blend well with any style, soft greys, clean whites, and gentle textures ensure your nursery feels both calming and contemporary.
