Women's Silk Pyjamas | Mulberry Silk Pajamas | Luxury Pyjama Set

Yes, 100% mulberry silk. The satin pyjama sets elsewhere on this site are a weave in polyester or viscose, and this is the fibre itself.

It is a supplier grading for the length and consistency of the raw silk filament, with 6A at the top of the usual scale. It describes the yarn rather than certifying anything independently, so read it as a supplier's description.

It is not published for this set, and we would rather say so than copy a figure from a neighbouring product. Our silk boxer shorts and the men's dressing gown are both 19 momme. Ask us and we will get the number from the supplier.

A way of weaving silk that leaves one face glossy and the other matt. It is what gives a silk pyjama set its drape and its shine.

Two pieces: a long sleeve top and full length bottoms.

Small and Large. There is no medium on this listing.

Silk has no stretch in it, so the fit matters more than it would in a jersey. If you are between the two, the Large is the safer choice for sleeping in.

More fabric, and the warehouse prices the two sizes separately. It is EUR 209 against EUR 189.

Blue, pink, red and white.

Silk at this weight is opaque, but white is the lightest of the four and shows a shadow more readily than the others in bright light.

It moves moisture and sits close to your own temperature rather than trapping heat, which is why the same set works in summer and winter. It is not a cooling technology, it is a fibre that does not get in the way.

Silk is smoother than cotton, so it catches less on skin and hair. That is a real and modest difference. We make no anti-ageing, medical or moisturising claims for it, and we have taken the ones that were on this page off.

We do not make that claim. Silk is a natural protein fibre and many people with sensitive skin prefer it, which is a preference rather than a tested claim. Anyone with a diagnosed silk allergy should avoid it.

Yes, cold on a gentle cycle with a silk detergent, ideally in a mesh bag. You can also dry clean it. Never bleach it and never wash it hot.

No. Hang it to dry away from direct heat and sunlight. Heat is what shortens the life of silk.

Sometimes, and always on the reverse at a cool setting. A hot iron glazes silk and the mark stays.

Not if you wash it cold. Hot water is the risk, as with any natural fibre.

Slowly, mostly from sunlight rather than washing. Dry it in the shade and the red and blue will hold for years.

Give it its own first wash, as any saturated dye on silk should have.

Years with cold washing and shade drying. Heat, bleach and direct sun are what age silk, in that order.

It is smooth, but it is a natural fibre and a ring or a rough nail can pull a thread. Worth knowing rather than a reason not to own one.

No, it is quiet and it slides. On silk or satin sheets the two together can be more movement than you want.

Different fabric, different price. The satin sets are EUR 69 in a polyester or viscose weave. This is real silk at EUR 189, and it breathes better and lasts longer.

If you sleep warm, or your skin or hair catches on cotton, yes. If you want the look for occasional wear, the satin set does that job at a third of the price.

Yes. Embroidery and monogramming is a separate item on this site and goes on the same order.

It ships in our standard packaging.

Free. Both sizes are well over the EUR 75 threshold.

Allow 5 to 7 days across Europe once your order is on its way.

Yes, 14 days from delivery to change your mind under EU consumer law, unworn and in resaleable condition. It is a stock item, so the right applies in full.

Yes, the mulberry silk pillowcase comes in eleven colours and is the same fibre.
