The term "sateen" is derived from the Chinese word "sha" or "sha t'e", which refers to a type of silk fabric. It was first introduced to Europe by Arab traders during the Middle Ages.
Over time, the term "sateen" came to be used for a variety of fabrics that shared a similar glossy, smooth surface. Today, sateen is commonly made from cotton, silk, or a blend of both.
