The anchor was seen as a symbol of strength as anchors hold down ships even in the stormiest of weather. It was also a popular symbol because of its close resemblance to the cross. Anchors were also used to mark safe houses for those seeking refuge from persecution.
While sheet sizes vary by brand and style, a fitted sheet is similar to its respective mattress in measurements; for instance, 78 inches wide and 80 inches long for a king mattress, compared to 72 inches wide, 84 inches long for a California king.

My client has a king size bed; if you use king size pillows on your king sized bed you only need two shams where if you used standard pillows it would require three.
