If it arrives faulty, damaged or not as described, we put it right at no cost to you under the consumer guarantees in the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, return postage included.

About this product
One pillowcase in 100 per cent mulberry silk, 22 momme, in eleven colours.
Grade 6A mulberry silk on both faces rather than a silk front over a cheaper back. 51 cm by 76 cm, sold one case at a time.
One pillowcase in 100 per cent mulberry silk at 22 momme, cut to 51 cm by 76 cm.
Grade 6A silk on both faces, which matters more than it sounds. A good many cheap silk cases are silk on the side you photograph and something else on the side against the mattress.
Eleven colours, sold per pillowcase rather than in pairs.
Silk is a smoother surface than cotton, so hair and skin drag across it less. That is the mechanism, and we would rather describe it than promise you a result.
This is a single pillowcase in 100 per cent mulberry silk, woven at 22 momme and finished at 51 cm by 76 cm.
Momme is a weight, not a thread count. At 22 the fabric has enough body to be washed repeatedly without going limp, which is the practical reason the number is worth reading.
Both faces are the same Grade 6A silk. A case that is silk on one side and a synthetic on the other costs less to make and feels different by morning.
Because silk is smoother than cotton there is less friction where hair and skin meet the fabric. What that is worth to you is a personal judgement and this page will not put a figure on it.
Wash it cold, with no enzymes and no bleach, and keep it out of the dryer. A mesh bag makes a gentle machine cycle safe.
Still deciding?
Not sure yet? That is fine.
You can change your mind. You have 15 days from purchase on any unused item in its original packaging.

A change of mind return carries a $29 handling charge and you cover the return postage.
If it turns up faulty, damaged or not as described, that is on us. The consumer guarantees in the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 give you a repair, a replacement or your money back, and where the failure is major the choice is yours rather than ours.
