22 Momme Silk Pillowcases: A Buying Guide

When you compare silk pillowcases, “22 momme” tells you about fabric weight. It does not tell you the size of the pillowcase or how many come in the pack. Here is how to read the details and choose an option that fits your bed and your routine.

What does 22 momme mean?

Momme, sometimes written as “mm”, is a unit used to describe silk fabric weight. A higher number means a heavier fabric per unit area. It is different from thread count, and it is not a measurement in millimetres.

For example, 22 momme describes a heavier fabric than 19 momme. That number alone does not tell you how a finished pillowcase will feel or how long it will last. Compare its material description, construction, size and care instructions as well.

What to check before choosing a pillowcase

• Material: The Absolute Pillowcase is listed as 22 momme mulberry silk. If you need product testing or composition documentation before buying, email info@thesilkspace.com with the exact colour and option.
• Fit: Our Standard/Queen option measures 20 × 30 inches and has a zipper closure. Compare those dimensions with your pillow; size names can differ between brands.
• Quantity: Single contains one pillowcase. Pair contains two pillowcases. Choose one for a single pillow or two for two pillows or a spare for wash days.
• Care: Read the care label before washing, and see our silk care instructions. Make sure the care routine fits how you look after your bedding.

Choosing a colour and quantity

Start with the silk pillowcase collection, or explore Sakura Pink and Navy Blue. Select the colour, size and Single or Pair option to see its current price and availability.

Buying a gift?

A pillowcase is a simple choice when the recipient already has the other accessories they need. A complete sleep set adds a silk sleep mask, two silk scrunchies and foam earplugs, with gift packaging.
