What makes it different?

Not All Silk Pillowcases Are Created Equal

Products can look similar in photographs, but the silk weight, fibre quality, construction and finishing can be completely different.

We believe customers deserve to know exactly what they are buying. Our pillowcases are made from premium Grade 6A Mulberry silk, with genuine silk fabric on both sides, elegant piped edging and a concealed zip closure.

Understanding silk weight

Why Choose 22 Momme Silk?

Momme is the traditional measurement used to describe the weight and density of silk fabric. It is more useful than thread count when comparing silk pillowcases.
01

Soft, Smooth and Substantial

Our 22 momme silk offers a smooth, luxurious feel with enough weight to feel beautifully substantial without being our heaviest option. It is a popular choice for customers who want a noticeable step up from lighter silk while retaining a soft and silky feel.
02

Made for Everyday Luxury

A silk pillowcase is made to be enjoyed, not left sitting in a cupboard. Our 22 momme range is designed to become part of your regular sleep routine. It offers a beautiful balance of softness, weight, colour choice and value.

Choosing the Right Momme Weight

There is no single correct momme weight for everyone. Your best choice depends on your preferred feel, available colours and budget.

Lightest option

19 Momme

Soft, smooth and lightweight. A beautiful introduction to genuine Mulberry silk and often the most affordable choice.

More substantial

25 Momme

Denser and weightier than 22 momme for customers who prefer a heavier silk fabric.

Premium weight

30 Momme

Our heaviest and most premium silk option, with a dense and beautifully substantial feel.

The fabric itself matters

Premium Grade 6A Mulberry Silk

Silk quality cannot be judged by momme weight alone. The fibre quality, weaving, dyeing, stitching and finishing all contribute to how the finished pillowcase looks and feels.
Mulberry silk

Made Using Premium Mulberry Silk

Mulberry silk is produced by silkworms raised on Mulberry leaves. It is valued for its smooth fibres and is widely used in premium silk bedding and clothing.
Grade 6A

A Premium Silk Grade

Grade 6A is commonly used to describe a premium grade of long-strand Mulberry silk. It is an important part of assessing silk quality, alongside the finished weave and construction.
OEKO-TEX®

STANDARD 100 Tested

Our silk has been tested in accordance with OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100.

Look beyond the fabric

Thoughtful Construction and Finishing

The way a pillowcase is constructed affects how it looks, how it fits and how enjoyable it is to use.

Genuine Silk on Both Sides

Our pillowcases are made with 22 momme Mulberry silk fabric on both the front and back. You can turn your pillow over and still sleep directly against silk.

Concealed Zip Closure

The quality zip closure helps keep your pillow securely inside and creates a neat, tailored finish throughout the night.

Piped Edge Detail

Piping around the edge gives each pillowcase added shape and a more polished appearance.

No External Embroidery

Lujo Home branding is positioned on the inside. We do not embroider the sleeping surface because we do not want anything distracting from the smooth feel of the silk.

Why people sleep on silk

A Smoother Surface for Hair and Skin

We spend many hours each night with our hair and skin resting against a pillowcase. Many customers choose silk because of its smooth feel and the way it moves against the hair and skin during sleep.

Less Friction

Silk provides a smoother sleeping surface than many common woven fabrics, which may help reduce friction against the hair and skin.

Gentle Against Hair

Hair can move more freely across smooth silk rather than repeatedly rubbing against a rougher fabric surface. Many customers tell us their hair looks smoother and feels less tangled after switching to silk.

Smooth Against Skin

The soft surface makes silk a popular choice for people who enjoy a smooth and luxurious fabric against their face.
Please note: Individual experiences vary. Silk pillowcases are bedding products, not medical treatments, and are not intended to treat or cure hair, skin or health conditions.

Know what you are buying

Silk and Satin Are Not the Same Thing

Silk is a natural fibre. Satin describes a type of weave or finish and can be made from several fibres, including polyester. Synthetic satin can still provide a smooth surface and may be a suitable lower-cost option. Genuine Mulberry silk is a premium natural material, and many customers prefer its soft lustre, natural composition and luxurious feel.
Feature Mulberry Silk Polyester Satin
What it is A natural protein fibre A synthetic fibre with a satin weave or finish
Surface Naturally smooth with a soft lustre Can feel smooth and appear highly shiny
Price A premium natural material Usually more affordable
What to check Silk type, grade, momme weight and construction Fibre content rather than the word “satin” alone

Caring for your silk investment

How to Care for Your Silk Pillowcase

Silk is a natural, delicate fabric. Gentle washing and careful handling will help preserve its feel and appearance.

Gentle Washing

  • Hand washing is the gentlest option.
  • For machine washing, turn the pillowcase inside out.
  • Place it inside a protective delicates bag.
  • Use cool or tepid water and a gentle cycle.
  • Wash with similar colours.
  • Use a detergent confirmed as suitable for silk.

Protect the Fabric

  • Avoid enzyme detergents, bleach and harsh stain removers.
  • Do not wash silk in hot water.
  • Do not tumble dry.
  • Dry away from strong direct sunlight.
  • Store clean and completely dry.
  • Follow our full Silk Care Instructions for detailed advice.
With appropriate care, a quality silk pillowcase can be enjoyed for years. Silk can be more difficult to treat for stains than cotton or synthetic fabrics, so prompt and gentle care is important.

Frequently asked questions

22 Momme Silk Pillowcase FAQ

Are silk pillowcases good for hair?

Many customers choose silk because its smooth surface creates less friction than many traditional bedding fabrics. Customers often tell us their hair feels smoother and looks less tangled after switching to silk, although individual experiences vary.

Do silk pillowcases really work?

That depends on what you want from your pillowcase. Genuine silk can be a beautiful choice for customers looking for a smoother sleeping surface, less friction against the hair and skin, or simply a touch of everyday luxury. Results and experiences vary from person to person.

Which is better: satin or silk?

Satin describes a weave or finish and is commonly made from polyester. Synthetic satin can still provide a smooth surface and is usually more affordable. Genuine Mulberry silk is a natural fibre, and many customers prefer its natural composition, soft lustre and luxurious feel.

What are the pros and cons of silk pillowcases?

Genuine silk offers a naturally smooth and luxurious sleeping surface, but it generally costs more than cotton or synthetic satin and requires gentler care. It cannot be hot washed or cleaned with harsh or enzyme-based detergents, and stains may be more difficult to treat.

Is 22 or 25 momme silk better?

This is a matter of personal preference. Our 25 momme silk is heavier and more substantial. Some customers prefer that extra weight, while others prefer the softer feel, broader colour range and lower price of 22 momme.

What is the highest momme available?

Lujo Home offers silk pillowcases from 19 momme through to 30 momme. Our 30 momme pillowcase is our heaviest and most premium option. We do not sell silk pillowcases below 19 momme.

Are both sides made from silk?

Yes. Our 22 momme Mulberry silk pillowcases have genuine silk fabric on both sides.

Will my pillow slide out?

The concealed zip closure is designed to keep your pillow securely inside the pillowcase.

Can I machine-wash it?

Yes. Place it inside a wash bag and use cool or tepid water, a gentle cycle and a detergent confirmed as suitable for silk. Hand washing remains the gentlest option.

Which colour should I choose?

Choose the colour that works best with your bedroom and existing bedding. Colour availability varies between silk weights and production batches, and our 22 momme range generally offers the broadest selection.
