Silk and Lyocell: a unique alliance for your pillowcases

Soie et Lyocell : une alliance unique pour vos taies d'oreillers

Our Maison de la Soie printed pillowcases are made of silk and lyocell. These materials stand out for their exceptional qualities. Comfortable and durable, these fibers ensure you enjoy nights filled with softness.

Silk: Ideal for Your Pillowcases

At Maison de la Soie, we’ve been specialists in silk bedding since 2010. We’ve selected mulberry silk to craft the bedding we offer. Mulberry silk is renowned for its smooth texture and luxurious look.

It is naturally hypoallergenic, and its ability to regulate temperature makes it perfect for sleeping in optimal comfort all year round.

Finally, silk cares for your hair and skin by preventing excessive friction.

Lyocell: The Natural Fiber Making Its Way into Your Pillowcases

Lyocell is a natural fiber made from wood pulp. This material is produced through a closed-loop process in which over 99% of the solvents are recycled, making it an eco-friendly and sustainable option.

In addition to being eco-friendly, lyocell is a durable fabric that offers excellent breathability. Soft to the touch, it feels similar to silk, combining luxury and performance while minimizing its environmental impact.

The Silk and Lyocell Pillowcase

On one hand, silk provides a silky-smooth feel, hypoallergenic benefits, and excellent breathability. On the other hand, lyocell is highly breathable and eco-friendly. Thanks to its softness and luster, lyocell can be mistaken for silk.

That’s why our pillowcases provide you with a comfortable sleeping environment, no matter the season, at an affordable price.


Caring for Your Silk and Lyocell Pillowcases

To preserve the softness and quality of your silk and lyocell pillowcases, simply machine wash them on the delicate cycle at 30° is sufficient. To preserve all the benefits of silk and lyocell, we recommend air-drying them quickly, away from direct sunlight or any heat source. You can then iron the fabric while it’s still slightly damp for a perfect finish.


The Unique Appeal of Printed Silk and Lyocell Pillowcases

With this new collection, Maison de la Soie offers you a unique combination of two materials that are ideal for peaceful nights. Our silk and lyocell pillowcases come in three unique prints—constellation, marble, and leopard—so you can create the desired ambiance in your bedroom.

Square pillowcases: 60x60 cm, 65x65 cm, or rectangular (40x60, 50x70, or 50x75 cm)—they’ll fit perfectly on your bed.

Sleep differently, dream elegantly

Express your individuality with refined prints, while enjoying the softness, freshness, and natural care that silk offers every night.

FAQ

Why choose a printed silk pillowcase over a solid-color one?
A printed silk pillowcase combines the natural benefits of silk (softness, skin and hair care, temperature regulation) with a unique decorative touch. Prints allow you to personalize your bedroom and express your style, all while enjoying the comfort of high-end linens.
Do printed silk pillowcases require special care?
Care is simple: just machine wash on a delicate cycle at 30°C. It’s recommended to avoid harsh products like bleach and to air-dry the pillowcase away from direct sunlight. Gently ironing the fabric while it is still slightly damp helps preserve the silk’s delicate texture and the sharpness of the prints.
Are printed silk pillowcases hypoallergenic?
Yes, silk is a naturally hypoallergenic fiber. It limits the proliferation of dust mites, repels dust, and remains gentle on sensitive skin. Printed silk pillowcases thus offer an elegant and healthy solution for people prone to allergies.
Can a printed silk pillowcase be machine-washed?
Yes, printed silk pillowcases can be machine-washed. Simply use a delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C with a mild detergent. Using a laundry net is recommended to protect the fibers. Let the pillowcase air dry naturally to preserve the fabric’s sheen and quality.
How can I preserve the beauty and color of the printed designs over time?
To preserve the vibrancy of the prints, it is recommended to wash the pillowcases inside out and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight. Using a detergent specifically formulated for silk or delicate fabrics helps maintain the intensity of the colors. Finally, gentle ironing helps maintain a flawless appearance without fading the patterns.
What material is used on the reverse side of the printed pillowcases (e.g., lyocell)?
Maison de la Soie’s printed silk pillowcases combine a mulberry silk side with a lyocell side. Lyocell is an eco-friendly fiber made from wood pulp that complements the silk with its breathability and durability. The combination of these two materials strikes a balance between aesthetics, comfort, and durability.
