Frequently Asked Questions
What is included?
A flat sheet. This is a single silk sheet rather than a full set, so it does not include a duvet cover or pillowcases. Our satin silk bedding set is the full-set product.
What sizes do you sell?
Two: EU King at 240cm x 240cm and EU Super King at 240cm x 270cm, at the same price. The difference is 30cm of length, which matters most on a deep mattress or if you like to tuck a lot under.
Which size do I need?
Measure your mattress depth as well as its width. A standard depth takes the 240 x 240 comfortably. A deep or pillow-top mattress, or anyone who wants a generous tuck, wants the 240 x 270.
Is this real silk?
Yes, 100% mulberry silk, the same fibre as our silk pillowcases. It is not satin or a silk blend.
What weight is the silk?
It is a lighter weight than our 22 momme pillowcases, as bed sheets generally are. A pillowcase takes concentrated wear in one small area; a sheet spreads it, so sheeting silk is woven lighter to drape properly.
What colours does it come in?
Black and white. The colour range is deliberately narrower than the pillowcases because sheets are bought to sit under everything else rather than to be the feature.
Can I machine wash it?
Yes, cold and on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, no bleach. Line dry or tumble on low. A silk sheet is a large item, so make sure it has room to move in the drum.
Will it need ironing?
Rarely. Silk drops most of its creases as it hangs on the bed. If you want it flat, iron on the reverse at a cool setting.
Is silk bedding hot or cold?
Neither, which is the point. Silk sits closer to your own temperature than cotton does, so the same sheet suits summer and winter. It feels cool when you first get in and does not trap heat the way flannel does.
Is it slippery?
It is smooth, and some people take a night or two to get used to it. It does not slide off the bed if it is tucked properly, but a silk sheet under a silk duvet cover can be more movement than you want.
How long will it last?
Years with cold gentle washing. What kills silk sheeting is hot water, bleach and a hot dryer, in that order.
Does it snag?
Silk is smoother than cotton but it is a natural fibre, so a rough toenail or a ring can pull a thread. It is worth knowing rather than a reason not to buy one.
Can I use it with a duvet?
Yes. It is a flat sheet, so it sits between you and the duvet in the usual way, or on its own in summer.
Is there a fitted sheet?
Not in this product. This is a flat sheet only.
Does the colour fade?
Black shows fading before white does, as any deep dye will. Cold water and drying out of direct sunlight are what prevent it.
Will the black run in the wash?
Give it its own first wash, as with any saturated dye on silk. After that it is fine with similar colours.
Is it good for hair and skin?
The same as the pillowcases: silk is smoother than cotton so it catches less, and it holds less moisture. We make no medical or anti-ageing claims for it.
Is it hypoallergenic?
We do not make that claim. Silk is a natural protein fibre and some people with sensitive skin prefer it, but that is a preference rather than a tested claim.
How does it compare to the satin bedding set?
Different fabric and different product. The satin set is a full set in a polyester weave at a lower price. This is a single flat sheet in real silk.
Can I buy matching pillowcases?
Yes. The mulberry silk pillowcases come in eleven colours including black and white, and they are the same fibre.
Why is it more expensive than the bedding set?
Because it is real silk and the set is satin. A single silk sheet costs more than a full satin set, which tells you most of what you need to know about the difference in the fabric.
Does it come in a gift box?
It ships in our standard packaging. Embroidery is available as a separate add-on.
How much is delivery?
Free. Both sizes are well over the EUR 75 threshold, so delivery costs you nothing.
How long does delivery take?
Allow 5 to 7 days across Europe once your order is on its way.
Can I return it?
Yes, 14 days from delivery to change your mind under EU consumer law. It is a standard stock item, so the right applies in full.
Can I return it if I have slept on it?
A change-of-mind return needs the item in resaleable condition, so unwashed and unused is straightforward. A fault or damage in transit is a separate matter and we will sort it out.
Do you sell to hotels?
Yes, there is a wholesale page, and it is worth contacting us directly for quantities.
Is it two-sided?
Yes, it is the same silk throughout, so there is no right or wrong way up.
Will it fit an emperor or a US king bed?
The 240 x 270 covers most oversized frames, but measure first. US sizing does not map cleanly onto EU sizing.
Do the photos show the real colour?
Closely. White shows the silk's sheen most clearly; black reads deeper in the folds than a screen can really convey.

A flat sheet, in real silk
This is a single flat sheet in 100% mulberry silk. It is not a set, so there
is no fitted sheet, no duvet cover and no pillowcases with it. That is worth
being clear about up front, because a lot of listings for "silk sheets" are
selling a satin set at a similar price and the two are not comparable.
It comes in two European sizes. The EU King is 240cm x 240cm and suits a
standard mattress depth. The EU Super King is 240cm x 270cm, and the extra 30cm
of length is what you want for a deep or pillow-top mattress, or if you like a
generous tuck under the foot of the bed. Measure the depth as well as the width
before choosing, because depth is what catches people out.
Why silk sheeting is woven lighter than a pillowcase
Our pillowcases are 22 momme. This sheet is lighter, and that is deliberate
rather than a saving. A pillowcase takes concentrated wear in one small area and
benefits from weight. A sheet has to drape over a whole bed and move with you,
so sheeting silk is woven lighter to hang properly. A 22 momme sheet would sit
on the bed like a tarpaulin.
Temperature, which is the real reason people buy it
Silk sits closer to your own body temperature than cotton or flannel does. It
feels cool when you first get in, and it does not trap heat as the night goes
on, which is why the same sheet works in August and in January. If you share a
bed with someone who runs hotter or colder than you, that is usually where a
silk sheet earns its place.
Living with it
Wash it cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and no bleach, and give
it room to move in the drum, since it is a large item. Line dry or tumble on
low. It rarely needs ironing because silk drops most of its creases as it hangs
on the bed.
Two colours, black and white, because a sheet usually sits under everything
else rather than being the feature. If you want matching pillowcases, the
mulberry silk pillowcase is the same
fibre in eleven colours. For a full bed in a cheaper fabric, the
satin silk bedding set is the alternative,
and it is satin rather than silk.
