Description
This is the Club Checkerboard, a pillowcase pair in a cotton and polyester blend with a woven waffle texture worked into an oblong checkerboard pattern. It is a check that reads through the weave rather than the print, so the design sits in the cloth itself and catches the light in soft blocks across the face of each case. The blend is 52% polyester and 48% cotton, which is what gives the pair its quick-drying, low-maintenance character while keeping some of the breathability cotton brings. The reverse is left plain and smooth, so one side gives you the texture and the other gives you a flat, cool finish against the cheek.
A pair of pillowcases is where a bed gets its finishing note, and these are made to work either as a set on their own or as a mix-and-match layer over a plainer duvet or sheet. The all-white colourway keeps things quiet, so the interest comes from the texture rather than from any colour, and that makes them easy to place in a bedroom that is already busy or one you want to keep pared back. They suit a guest room where you want something that looks considered without demanding attention, and they sit happily alongside smooth cotton bedding where the waffle adds a bit of contrast in feel.
Construction is straightforward and practical: a waffle-weave front, a smooth reverse, and an envelope closure that tucks the pillow in for a secure fit with nothing to fasten. The blend is quick drying and needs no ironing, so they go from the wash back onto the bed with very little fuss. Style them as a pair, or split them across a wider bed and bring in a coordinating waffle piece to build the look up.

Frequently Asked
What is the pillowcase made from?
Each case is a cotton and polyester blend, 52% polyester and 48% cotton, giving you quick drying and easy care with some of the breathability that cotton brings.
Is the checkerboard pattern printed or woven?
The check is woven into the cloth as a waffle texture rather than printed on, so the oblong checkerboard design sits in the weave and shows up in soft blocks of light and shade.
Do I need to iron these pillowcases?
No. The blend is designed to need no ironing, so they can go straight from the wash back onto the bed with no pressing required.
How do the pillowcases fasten?
They use an envelope closure, which is an internal flap that holds the pillow inside for a secure fit with nothing to button or zip.
What is the reverse side like?
The front carries the waffle texture and the reverse is left plain and smooth, so you get texture on one side and a flat, cool surface on the other.
How many pillowcases come in the pack?
This is sold as a pair, so you receive two matching pillowcases in the one purchase.
