Description
The Hebden pillowcase pair brings a narrow rosewood-pink and cream stripe to the head of the bed, printed on pure cotton. You are buying two pillowcases, both carrying the same vertical stripe you can see running the length of the cloth. Each is finished with an Oxford border, the flat sewn margin that frames the pillow rather than stopping at its edge, so the pair sits with a defined outline against a plain sheet or a matching set.
Stripes this fine suit a bedroom that is kept simple. The rosewood reads as a soft, dusty pink rather than a bright one, which is why it sits comfortably against natural linen, warm neutrals and pale wood, as the photograph shows against an unbleached headboard and a green wall. If you like a pared-back or Scandi-leaning look, a striped pillowcase gives the bed a little rhythm without the pattern taking over the room. It works equally as the whole story on a made bed or layered under a plainer throw.
The cloth is 100% cotton, so it breathes and stays cool through the night, and it takes a wash and a warm night without fuss. Cotton is a natural fibre that absorbs moisture and launders well, which is what you want against your face night after night. The closure is an envelope back, where the inner flap holds the pillow in place with no buttons or zip to feel through the cover. Slip both cases on, tuck the pillow behind the flap and the Oxford border settles the shape. Pair them with the wider Hebden range for a co-ordinated bed, or let the stripe stand on its own.

Frequently Asked
How many pillowcases come in this pack?
This is a pair, so you receive two matching pillowcases, both in the same rosewood and cream striped cotton shown in the photograph.
What is an Oxford border and how does it look on the bed?
An Oxford border is a flat sewn margin around the edge of the pillowcase that frames the pillow, giving the pair a neat, defined outline against your sheet.
How does the pillow stay inside the case?
Each pillowcase has an envelope closure, an inner flap that holds the pillow securely with no buttons or zip to press against your face while you sleep.
What does the cotton feel like against your skin?
These are made from pure cotton, a natural fibre that breathes and absorbs moisture, so the surface stays cool and comfortable through the night.
What colours does the stripe suit in a bedroom?
The rosewood is a soft, dusty pink rather than a bright one, which sits well with natural linen, pale wood and warm neutral walls.
