Silk is a 100% natural fiber. Satin is made of a blend of fibers, mostly synthetic materials (man-made materials) such as nylon or polyester, with the price much lower than silk and without all the benefits silk can offer as a natural product.

What weave do we use?
Silk can be woven into different weaves. We use top grade 100% silk material, in a charmeuse weave.
How do you measure thread counts of silk?
Thread count is a quality measuring standard for cotton, not silk. Thread-count is not as important in silk products as it is for cotton, as in silk threads can vary greatly in terms of diameter and length. Silk quality is measured by it’s weight, and momme (fabric weight/thickness) is the traditional density unit for silk. The higher the momme number, the heavier and better quality the silk. Most in the market are between 12 to 16 momme, but ours is 22 momme, the best weight for durable pillowcases. If you take proper care of your pure silk pillowcase it can last for years.
Is silk easy to care for?
Surprisingly, it is easier than most people think. Place your LOVESILK pillowcase in the washing machine, we recommend using our LOVESILK washag for extra protection, with a mild or sensitive detergent in the form of a liquid detergents, put on a deing blicate cycle, tumble dry using the dryer's low temperature delicate cycle with fabric softener and it will turn out soft and nice. If you air dry the item you might need to iron it with low heat by turning the pillowcase inside out and ironing on the back to restore it’s shine and softness.
