Extended Product Information

FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of this pillowcase?

The pillowcase measures 48cm x 91cm (19" x 36").

Is this a single pillowcase or a pair?

This product listing is for a single Oxford pillowcase. Pairs are sold separately if available.

How does the 330 thread count compare to other counts?

The 330 thread count using single-ply yarn is equivalent to a 500 thread count using twisted yarns, indicating a dense, high-quality fabric that is softer and more durable.

Can I use bleach on this pillowcase?

No, bleach is not recommended as it can damage the cotton fibers and affect the color. Use a mild detergent.

Will this pillowcase fit a standard UK pillow?

This pillowcase is designed for British king-size pillows (48 x 91cm). It will likely be too large for standard UK pillows (48 x 74cm).

How often should I wash my pillowcase?

It is generally recommended to wash pillowcases weekly or bi-weekly to maintain hygiene, especially during warmer months or if you perspire during sleep.

Does the satin weave make it slippery?

The satin weave provides a smooth, luxurious feel with a subtle sheen. While smooth, it is designed for comfort and is not excessively slippery.

Troubleshooting

Pillowcase feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can coat the cotton fibers. Wash at 60°C as recommended, and consider air drying or tumble drying on a low setting.

Color appears different from online images.

Color perception can vary based on screen settings and lighting conditions. The 'Sage' is a muted green. Check product details for color specifics and consider purchasing a single case first to verify the shade.

Pillow slips out of the envelope closure.

Ensure the pillow is fully inserted and the envelope flap is tucked in securely. For very firm or slippery pillows, a slight adjustment or a more tightly fitting pillow may help.

Noticeable pilling or bobbling after initial washes.

While designed to resist pilling, initial light pilling can sometimes occur. Ensure you are washing with similar items and not overloading the machine. Gentle care should lead to the fabric becoming smoother with subsequent washes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Luxurious feel and appearance due to Egyptian cotton and satin weave.
  • Durable construction that resists pilling and becomes softer over time.
  • Hypoallergenic properties are beneficial for sensitive sleepers.
  • Easy to care for with machine washability at 60°C.
  • Generous sizing and elegant Oxford design.

Cons

  • Sold individually, requiring multiple purchases for a complete set.
  • Satin weave may be prone to snagging if not cared for properly.
  • The 'Sage' green color may vary slightly depending on lighting.
  • Requires specific washing and drying to maintain fabric integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This is a pillowcase and requires no assembly. Simply insert your pillow through the envelope closure.

Compatibility:

Designed for standard British king-size pillows measuring approximately 48 x 91cm (19 x 36"). It is compatible with pillows that fit these dimensions, including V-shaped and body pillows if they match the size specification. Co-ordinating fitted sheets, flat sheets, and other pillowcase styles are available from the Homescapes range in matching colours.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine washable at 60°C (140°F). This temperature is effective for hygiene and removing allergens.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals, which can damage the cotton fibers and color.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry for best results. Overheating can cause shrinkage or damage to the fabric weave.
  • Ironing: If desired, iron on a medium heat setting while the fabric is still slightly damp to achieve a crisp finish.
  • Stain Removal: Treat any stains promptly with a suitable stain remover before washing.
