Oxford Pillowcases

With its heavy linen union border, single hemstitch and two rows of cording, Chatsworth represents true luxury.

The linen union in Chatsworth is a mix of 60% linen and 40% Egyptian cotton, with 160 grams per square metre.

The Egyptian cotton percale is the finest quality with 220 threads per inch.

The design is available in two combinations to suit your taste; all linen union, or 100% Egyptian cotton percale with linen union borders.

A Housewife Pillowcase is a standard pillowcase, where the pillow fills all of the fabric, whereas an Oxford Pillowcase has a border around it.

Peter Reed ‘Oxford style’ pillowcases are sewn with traditional mitred corners throughout. Their construction requires assembly of three separate pieces of fabric and skilful sewing. The end result is a flange which supports itself at the corners when placed on the bed, unlike the simpler ‘mock’ Oxford construction which can give a ‘rabbit ear’ effect.

Labelling & Laundering Care
All Peter Reed linens are labelled with European and US standard washing instructions, and also include a generic size sewn-in label for easy identification and housekeeping. Cotton should be washed at as high a temperature as possible and, for best results, with a low concentrate detergent. Ironing is recommended whilst the fabric is damp.
