Why Silk?
Silk isn’t just beautiful — it’s also practical, especially for pillows:
Naturally smooth and gentle on skin and hair
Reduces friction, frizz, and sleep creases
Breathable, temperature-regulating, and hypoallergenic
For Bed or Decor
This size works beautifully as a decorative accent or as a bed pillow.
I personally use this exact size silk cover with a feather insert as my sleep pillow — soft, breathable, and kind to my skin. I hand-wash it quickly twice a week, and it’s held up beautifully for more than a couple of years.
Optional Insert
Shown with a 12x21” feather insert from West Elm — very full and fluffy.
Standard flat inserts may not fill out the cover as nicely.
If you'd like to order the insert with the cover, check out my insert listing.
Each piece is one of a kind, made from rescued kimono fabric with history and soul. Small marks or inconsistencies may be present — part of the beauty of vintage silk.
