FAQs

What makes Egyptian cotton different from regular cotton?

Egyptian cotton has longer, finer fibers, which results in a smoother, stronger, and more durable fabric that is also exceptionally soft and breathable.

What does '200 thread count percale' mean?

A 200 thread count in percale weave means there are 200 threads woven into every square inch. Percale is known for its crisp, cool feel and matte finish.

Is this pillowcase suitable for people with allergies?

Yes, the dense weave of this pillowcase is hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites, making it a good choice for individuals with allergies or sensitive skin.

What is an Oxford pillowcase?

An Oxford pillowcase is a style of pillowcase characterized by a decorative border around the edges, which typically extends about 5cm from the seam. It offers a more formal and elegant look compared to a standard housewife pillowcase.

How should I wash my Oxford pillowcase?

Machine wash at a moderate temperature (around 40°C), tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a medium setting. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners to maintain the fabric's quality.

Can I buy this pillowcase in other colors?

Homescapes offers this Egyptian Cotton Oxford Pillowcase in a range of colors, including Cream, Yellow, Dark Grey, Pink, Red, Grey, and Black, subject to availability.

What does OEKO-TEX® certified mean for this product?

OEKO-TEX® certification means that the fabric has been tested and certified to be free from harmful substances, ensuring it is safe for human use.

Troubleshooting

Pillowcase feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are not using fabric softener, which can stiffen cotton fibers. Try washing again with a small amount of mild detergent and tumble drying on low heat.

Color appears to be fading

Wash dark colors separately and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Use a mild detergent designed for colored fabrics.

Pillowcase does not fit standard pillow

Double-check the pillow dimensions to ensure it matches the pillowcase size. Homescapes products are generally designed for standard sizes, but slight variations can occur.
