Description

This is a pair of pure cotton pillowcases in white, made with a 200 thread count cotton sateen and finished in the Oxford style. The Oxford format is what sets these apart from a plain housewife pillowcase: a flat fabric border runs around all four sides, framing the pillow rather than stopping at the edge. The result is a wider, dressed look on the bed, and the border is the detail your eye lands on when the pillow is propped against the headboard.

A pair suits a standard double, king or super king bed where two pillows sit side by side, and the plain white finish means they work with almost any duvet cover or throw you already own. Because there is no colour or pattern to match, they are the easy layer to keep in rotation while you change the rest of the bedding around them. White also lends itself to a hotel-style made bed, where crisp, unbusy linen does the work. If you like a fuller stack, buy a second pair and build up behind them.

Cotton is breathable and absorbent, which is why it sleeps cool and handles a warm wash and a hot iron without complaint, so these will launder well and press to a smooth, flat finish. Sateen is a weave that gives cotton a soft, faintly lustrous surface, closer to silk to the touch than a plain percale. Each case closes with an envelope opening at the back, a simple flap that tucks the pillow in and keeps it from creeping out overnight, with no buttons or zip to catch. Iron the border while slightly damp to keep those framing edges sharp.

Frequently Asked

How many pillowcases are in this pack?

This is sold as a pair, so you receive two matching pillowcases, which is the usual number for a double, king or super king bed.

What is an Oxford pillowcase?

An Oxford pillowcase has a flat fabric border stitched around all four edges, giving a wider, framed look compared with a plain housewife style that stops at the seam.

How does the pillowcase stay closed?

Each case has an envelope closure at the back, a fabric flap that folds over the open end to hold the pillow securely in place with no buttons or zip.

What does the sateen weave feel like?

Sateen gives cotton a soft, faintly lustrous surface that feels smoother against the skin than a plain weave, while remaining fully breathable cotton.

Will they fit a standard pillow?

These are the standard Oxford size and take an ordinary rectangular pillow, with the border sitting flat around the edge once the pillow is inside.
