Percale is a plain, close weave rather than a twill, which is what gives cotton bedding its crisp, cool hand and its matt, flat surface. The pair has been garment-washed before it reaches you, so the cloth arrives already softened and relaxed rather than stiff and new, and it keeps that lived-in feel from the first night. In the photograph the cases read as a clean, plain white with no pattern, letting the weave itself do the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese sit easily on almost any bed, which is the point of a plain white case. They work as the base layer under a patterned duvet or a throw, and they pair just as comfortably with linen, other cottons or a mixed set, so you can build a bed without matching everything to one range. Because the surface is unpatterned and the colour is a straightforward white, they are the pair to reach for when you want the bedding to sit quietly and let a headboard, a lamp or a bedside plant carry the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction is honest and visible: a twin-stitched trim runs around the edge as a neat double line of stitching, and the closure is an envelope back, so the pillow tucks in behind a flap and stays put with nothing to fasten. Being pure cotton, they wash and dry straightforwardly and take a hot wash well, which matters on bedding that goes through the laundry often. Give them a shake and a smoothing hand as they come off the line and the percale settles flat. A plain white pair like this earns its place by going with everything you already own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% cotton percale\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDesign\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlain, unpatterned\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGarment-washed; twin-stitched trim; envelope closure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePair of two pillowcases\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many pillowcases are in the pack?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a pair, so you receive two matching pillowcases in one pack, enough for a standard double bed with two pillows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is percale and how is it different from ordinary cotton?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePercale is a plain, tightly woven cotton with a crisp, cool, matt finish, as opposed to the softer sheen of a sateen weave.
