Indulge in the quiet luxury of old-world France with this exceptional antique pillowcase, handcrafted from pure natural linen and finished with delicate jours échelle (ladder hemstitching) along each edge.
Beautiful raised "CD" monograms adorn both ends, a hallmark of late 19th- to early 20th-century French trousseau linens, when each piece was lovingly embroidered for a bride's dowry chest.
Measuring approximately 62 × 12 inches, this extra-long pillowcase was likely designed for a traditional French bolster or traversin—the long cylindrical pillows once found on elegant French beds and daybeds. Today, it also makes a beautiful cover for a body pillow, offering timeless style along with the natural comfort of linen.

Made from 100% natural linen that becomes softer with every wash.
Naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, and comfortable in every season.
Hypoallergenic and durable for everyday use.
Sustainable, long-lasting, and beautifully textured with classic French character.
