FAQs
Siyuan pillow cases are made from 100% mulberry silk on both sides, providing an ultra-smooth and luxurious feel against your skin. The high-quality mulberry silk is specially processed to maximize softness and prevent wrinkling.
Hand or machine wash cool with a mild detergent, then air dry. Avoid hot water, bleach and fabric softeners to preserve the silk. Gently fold rather than wrinkle the pillowcase for storage and follow washing instructions to maximize longevity.
Siyuan pillowcases come in standard/queen and king sizes to fit most pillows. Measure your pillow to confirm dimensions before purchasing. The silk material has some stretch to accommodate thicker pillows as well.
Yes, the smooth silk is gentle on skin and hair, preventing messy bedhead by allowing strands to move freely and avoiding damage. The hypoallergenic material won’t disturb sensitive skin.
The slippery texture of silk allows you to find a comfortable position for restful sleep and won’t absorb body heat like other fabrics. It also remains breathable to help regulate temperature throughout the night.
Use silk or satin pillow inserts rather than feather/down which can shift around inside the case. Fold excess fabric under pillows instead of tucking under the edges. Consider adjustable pillowcases with zipper closures or ties to secure the pillow inside.
The tightly woven silk material is designed to prevent most makeup, including foundation, lipstick and mascara, from transferring onto the pillowcase so it always looks clean and fresh.
It’s best to always air dry silk to prevent damage to the fabric. If needed in a pinch, use the air fluff no heat setting to gently freshen up the pillowcase and avoid extreme heat.
Wash every 1-2 weeks or when soiled. The anti-bacterial properties of silk naturally repel dust mites, mildew and odors between washes so they stay fresh longer than cotton cases.
