Know before you buy
The stonewashing process gives the fabric a relaxed, lived-in softness right out of the package. It removes the initial stiffness often associated with new percale, resulting in a matte, cloudlike texture that continues to soften with every wash.
Yes. The 300-thread count percale weave is known for being crisp, cool, and highly breathable, making these an excellent choice for warmer months or for those who tend to sleep hot.
GOTS certification ensures the cotton is grown and processed organically without harmful chemicals, while Oeko-Tex certification guarantees the finished product is free from over 100 harmful substances. Both certifications confirm that these shams meet high standards for environmental and human safety.
To keep the fabric in its best condition, machine wash in warm water and tumble dry on a low setting. Avoid using harsh bleach, as the natural fibers respond best to gentle, standard laundry detergents.
The flange is the decorative border that extends beyond the edge of the pillow insert. It adds a subtle, tailored structure to the sham, helping it look more polished and intentional when layered on your bed.
The six available hues are designed to be versatile and mix-and-match friendly. Because they feature a matte, stonewashed finish, they tend to pair well with both patterned and solid-colored bedding without clashing.
