Thread Count


Supima®, the trademarked name for American Pima cotton, is a close second to Egyptian cotton. Made with long-staple as well, this cotton is durable, high quality, and still luxuriously soft without as high of a price tag as Egyptian cotton.
Pillowcases have many different kinds of closures, like buttons, ties, or envelopes. They may also have none at all. Depending on the purveyor, pillowcases are either sold separately or in pairs.
Unlike other woven fabrics, silk isn’t measured by thread count, but by momme. Momme is a Japanese unit of weight measurement. A higher momme means a thicker/heavier silk, which also can indicate quality level.
