About the Washed Linen Pillowcases, Pair
A pair of 100% linen pillowcases, 48 × 74 cm, closed with fabric ties rather than an envelope flap. The ties matter more than they sound: an envelope closure bunches under your ear and a zip is a hard object next to your face, while ties sit flat and let you cinch the case to a pillow that is thinner than the cover. Plain weave, reactive-dyed, and stonewashed so they arrive soft rather than needing a month of use. Cool against skin in summer, and they keep getting softer.

Still deciding? Linen Bedding: Is It Worth It?
Linen bedding is worth it if you sleep warm, keep bedding for years, and do not mind a relaxed, creased look. Linen moves heat and moisture away faster than cotton, softens with every wash instead of pilling, and commonly lasts three to five times as long as a cotton sheet, which offsets the higher purchase price. It is not worth it if you want a crisp hotel finish, since washed linen is deliberately rumpled and ironing it defeats the point, or if you dislike a slightly textured surface against your skin.
Questions about the Washed Linen Pillowcases, Pair
How many pillowcases are in the pack?
Two — they are sold as a pair, and the supplier's packing list confirms it.
What size pillow do they fit?
48 × 74 cm, or roughly 19 × 29 inches. That covers a US standard pillow (51 × 66 cm) generously and fits a European or UK pillow exactly. On a US standard pillow the extra length gathers slightly at the tie end.
Why tie closures instead of an envelope?
Because you sleep on this seam. An envelope flap bunches into a ridge under your ear and a zip is worse; ties sit flat and let you close the case snugly around a thinner pillow.
Are they really linen?
Yes — the supplier lists the composition as 100% linen with a plain weave and reactive dyeing. That is different from the linen-weave fabric used in our semi-sheer curtains, which is a texture rather than a fibre claim.
How should they be washed?
Machine wash warm with like colours and tumble dry on low. Skip fabric softener — it coats linen and stops it breathing, which undoes the reason to buy linen in the first place.
