Description
The Palmeria pillowcase pair is a quilted velvet piece with a raised palm-leaf pattern worked across the face. The velvet front is a warm gold with a soft sheen, and the quilting picks out sweeping leaf fronds and fine channelled ribs that catch the light differently as you move around the bed. Each pillowcase is finished with an oxford edge, the flat bordered surround you can see framing the quilted centre. Sold as a pair, in the oxford size.
This is a dressing piece as much as a sleeping one. The depth of the gold and the sculpted texture suit a darker, richer bedroom scheme, sitting well against deep walls, warm woods and brass or copper accents. Because it is an oxford style with a bordered edge, it reads as a made bed straight away, propped against the headboard or laid flat on top of your everyday pillowcases. It gives you a way to add colour and surface interest without committing to a full change of bedding.
The face is 100% polyester velvet, chosen for its durability and the way it holds a deep, even colour and a crisp quilted relief. The reverse is 100% cotton, a natural fibre that breathes and helps carry heat away from you as you sleep, so the side against your face stays cooler than the velvet face suggests. The opening is an envelope closure, which tucks the pillow in without buttons or a zip to press against you. Polyester velvet is best kept looking its best with gentle handling; check the sewn-in care label before your first wash. The wider Palmeria range shares this quilted palm design across matching pieces if you want to build the look up.
