Know before you buy
Percale is a plain-weave fabric known for its signature cool, crisp, and matte finish. Unlike sateen, which feels silky and luminous, these percale shams offer a structured, breathable feel that stays refreshing throughout the night.
These shams are crafted with a medium-heavy weight, making them more substantial and durable than standard lightweight pillowcases. This added density provides a crisp, tailored look on the bed and holds up well against daily use.
The minimalist chain motif is rendered in two-tone machine embroidery. This technique adds subtle visual depth and texture to the fabric that a printed design cannot replicate.
Long-staple cotton fibers are longer and stronger than standard cotton, resulting in a smoother, softer surface that is less prone to pilling. This ensures the shams maintain their refined feel and appearance over time.
To preserve the integrity of the embroidery and the crispness of the percale, we recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly to minimize wrinkling.
