FAQs

What is 'momme' and 'grade 6A' in relation to silk?

Momme (mm) is a unit of weight used to measure silk density and quality; 22 momme is considered a good, durable weight for bedding. Grade 6A refers to the highest quality long silk fibers, indicating superior smoothness and strength.

How often should I wash my silk pillowcase?

It is generally recommended to wash your silk pillowcase once a week, or more frequently if you have specific skin concerns or use heavy night products.

Can I use regular detergent on my silk pillowcase?

No, it is best to use a detergent specifically designed for silk or delicate fabrics. Regular detergents can strip the natural proteins in silk, damaging its sheen and softness.

Will this pillowcase help with acne?

The hypoallergenic and non-absorbent properties of mulberry silk can be beneficial for acne-prone skin, as it is less likely to harbor bacteria and helps retain skin's natural moisture, preventing dryness that can sometimes exacerbate breakouts.

What is the size of these pillowcases?

This twinpack includes two standard-size pillowcases, measuring 75 x 50cm.

Can I put silk pillowcases in the washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash them on a delicate or silk cycle in cold water, preferably inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the fabric. However, hand washing is the gentlest method.

Does the navy color fade?

When cared for according to the instructions (cold wash, silk detergent, air dry), the navy color should remain vibrant. Avoid harsh detergents and direct sunlight during drying to prevent fading.

Troubleshooting

Pillowcase appears dull or loses sheen.

This can occur from harsh detergents or improper drying. Ensure you are using a silk-specific detergent and air-drying away from direct sunlight. Consider a very low heat steam if ironing is needed.

Visible creases or wrinkles after washing.

Avoid wringing the silk. Gently smooth out the fabric and hang to air dry. If ironing is required, use a cool iron on the reverse side while the fabric is still slightly damp.

The zip closure is difficult to open or close.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zip. If it feels stiff, you can try gently running a graphite pencil along the teeth of the zipper to lubricate it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and longevity of the mulberry silk:

  1. Washing: Hand wash gently in cold water with a mild, silk-specific detergent. Alternatively, machine wash on a delicate or silk cycle using a mesh laundry bag in cold water.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently squeeze out excess water without wringing. Lay flat or hang to air dry away from direct sunlight.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, iron on the lowest heat setting while the pillowcase is still slightly damp, or use a cool iron setting on the reverse side.
  4. Avoid: Do not bleach, soak, or use harsh detergents.
