About this product
Every colour we make it in, on one page.
22 momme Grade 6A mulberry silk, 51 cm by 76 cm, hidden zip, eleven colours at one price. Pick a colour and the price and picture change with it.
This is the whole colour range on one page. Each colour also has a page of its own if you would rather read about it there; the pillowcase is the same either way.
100 per cent mulberry silk, Grade 6A long fibre, woven to 22 momme. That is the heaviest weight worth using on a pillowcase: lighter wears through, much heavier stops draping.
51 cm by 76 cm, which fits a standard Irish pillow. It will not fit a king pillow.
It closes with a hidden zip rather than an envelope flap, so the pillow stays put and there is nothing to tuck in at bedtime.
Every colour is the same price. There is no minimum order, so one is fine.
What a silk pillowcase does is reduce friction. A silk surface lets both slide. That is a property of the weave rather than a treatment, and it is the honest version of everything else said about silk pillowcases.
Momme is how silk is measured. Silk thread is too fine for a useful thread count, so a standard piece is weighed instead and the weight in pounds is the momme. At 22 this is dense and heavy. Below 19 a pillowcase wears through quickly; much above 22 and you are into furnishing weight.
Grade 6A refers to the length and evenness of the fibre. Long fibre silk is what gives the surface its evenness, and it is the difference between silk that stays smooth and silk that pills at the seam after a year.
Colour changes nothing about the silk. What it changes is how the case lives in the room and how quickly marks show: black and silver hide most, white and light blue show most and can also be treated hardest.
Care is the part people get wrong and it is simple. Cold water, no enzymes, no bleach, no dryer, dried in the shade. Treated that way a 22 momme case lasts years rather than seasons.

The complete guide
How to buy a silk pillowcase without buying the wrong thing
5 min readFlair Silk Company
Check the pillow first
This case is 51 cm by 76 cm, the standard Irish pillow size, and almost every pillow sold here is that. If yours is a king, or a contoured memory foam shape, measure before you order. A case stretched over a pillow it was not cut for wears at the seam, and that is the one failure that is not the fabric's fault.
Silk or satin: know which you are buying
Satin is a weave; silk is a fibre. A satin can be woven from silk or from polyester, so the word on its own tells you nothing about the material. This page is silk. The Polyester Satin Pillowcase on this site is a satin weave in 100 per cent polyester, glides in much the same way, and costs a good deal less. Both are worth owning. They are priced and described separately here on purpose.
The number that matters is momme
Momme is a weight, not a thread count. Silk thread is too fine to count usefully, so a standard piece is weighed. 22 momme is what we use for pillowcases: 19 is perfectly good and wears through sooner, and anything much heavier starts behaving like curtain silk.
Grade tells you about the fibre, not the finish
6A is the long fibre grade. It is what keeps the surface even, and it is the difference between a case that is still smooth in year three and one that pills along the seam in year one.
Pick the colour for the room, not for the silk
Every colour here is the identical fabric at the identical price. What changes is how it lives: black and silver forgive marks between washes, white and light blue show them soonest and can also take a silk-safe stain treatment that a dyed case cannot.
Wash it the boring way
Cold water, 30 degrees or below, hand wash or a gentle machine cycle in a mesh bag. Use a detergent with no enzymes and no bleach. Air dry out of direct sun and keep it out of the dryer. Iron on the lowest setting if you iron it at all.
Tell us what you want it to do and how you do laundry, and we will tell you whether the silk or the satin is the better spend. Free standard delivery across Ireland on orders of €60 or more.
