But there are a few important decisions to make before you click our “add to cart” button. Along with choosing your favorite color and size pillowcase, you need to decide on the ‘silk weight”-- or momme -- that’s best for you.
Mulberry Park Silks pillowcases come in three weights, ranging from 19 to 30 momme.
Momme is a unit that measures the weight of silk. As the momme number increases, more silk is used in making the pillowcase. The weave is denser and the silk thread itself is heavier. A higher momme count pillowcase will be more expensive.
Think of “momme” as similar to thread count for cotton sheets.The higher the thread count number - the more cotton is used, and the denser the weave.
Learning a bit about the different momme silk weights can help you identify the silk pillowcase that works best for your personal preferences and budget:
19 momme is a lovely silk and our most affordable option. It has a competitive price point, which makes it a great purchase for anyone new to silk who wants to try it out. Our 19 momme pillowcases are luxurious and beneficial to hair and skin. However, they are made with less silk than higher momme weaves, so they tend to be a bit more delicate.
Our 22 momme silk pillowcase is a step up in both weight and price. We call this our signature silk pillowcase. It’s the same weight as our most popular silk sheets. Our 22 momme pillowcases offer excellent durability in a tight weave. You can absolutely feel the luxury in this pillowcase.
Our 30 momme pillowcases represent the ultimate in softness. They feel absolutely indulgent. These are our most expensive pillowcase and well worth the investment. Thirty momme is exceptionally durable. It has the highest density of silk, the tightest weave, and the thickest silk strands. It offers an incomparable feel and sleep experience.
