What is a 19 momme silk pillowcase?

A 19 momme silk pillowcase is a pillowcase made from premium silk with a density of 19 momme.
The number "19 mommes" refers to the thickness of the silk used in the manufacture of the pillowcase. The higher the momme number, the denser, heavier and more luxurious the fabric.
The 19 momme density gives the pillowcase a softer feel and superior durability than lower density silk pillowcases. It also provides better temperature regulation and wrinkle resistance, contributing to a more comfortable sleep and healthier skin and hair.

What are the benefits of a 19 momme silk pillowcase?

A 19 momme silk pillowcase is a natural beauty product. Thanks to its soft and smooth texture, it reduces friction and minimizes the risk of wrinkles and frizz. It is known for its ability to maintain skin moisture and keep hair soft, helping to maintain a youthful and healthy appearance.

19 momme silk naturally regulates body temperature, promoting deeper, more comfortable sleep throughout the night. Its breathability helps wick away excess moisture, which is beneficial for those prone to night sweats. As a hypoallergenic material, silk is also ideal for those with sensitive skin or allergies.

By investing in a quality silk pillowcase, you are also investing in your overall health and well-being.

How many grams of silk in a 19 momme pillowcase?

The exact weight of silk in a 19 momme silk pillowcase may vary depending on the size of the pillowcase.

Let's say, for example, that a standard pillowcase measures approximately 50 cm x 75 cm. For a 19 momme silk pillowcase of this size, the silk weight can be estimated at around 100 to 120 grams.

Why choose a 19 momme silk pillowcase over other mommes?

Choosing between a 19 momme, 22 momme, or 30 momme silk pillowcase depends mostly on your personal preferences and specific needs for comfort and durability. Here are some things to consider:

Texture and feel: 19 momme silk pillowcases are lighter and have a softer, more fluid feel to the touch, which may be preferable for some people. Thicker silk pillowcases, such as 22 or 30 momme, may have a slightly firmer, denser texture.

Breathability and temperature regulation: Lighter silk pillowcases tend to be more breathable and can help regulate body temperature while sleeping, which can be beneficial for those who tend to sweat at night. However, thicker silk pillowcases can provide additional insulation and therefore may be preferable in colder climates.

Price: In general, silk pillowcases with a higher momme count tend to be more expensive. So, if price is an important factor for you, 19 momme silk pillowcases offer the best value for your money.

Are 19 momme silk pillowcases durable? Do they withstand multiple washes and ironings?

Yes, 19 momme silk pillowcases can be durable and withstand regular washing as well as ironing if treated with care. With proper care, they can last for several years, providing comfort and quality throughout their lifespan.

Proper care of 19 momme silk pillowcases involves the following steps:


Gentle Wash: Hand wash or machine wash the pillowcase on a gentle cycle in cold water. Use a mild detergent specifically designed for silk. Avoid bleaching agents and fabric softeners as they can damage the silk fibers.

Air Dry: Air dry the pillowcase by hanging it up or laying it flat. Avoid using a dryer as the heat can damage the silk.

Ironing at low temperature: The shiny side should be down and it is the duller and matte side that will be in contact with the iron. Keep the iron moving to prevent the silk from burning. Do not iron the same part for more than 5 seconds.


By following these care tips, you can extend the life of your silk pillowcase and maintain its softness and quality over time.
