"Indulge in the quiet luxury of old-world France with this exceptional antique pillowcase, hand-stitched in pure natural linen and finished with delicate jours échelle (ladder hemstitching) along each edge.
Beautiful raised âCDâ monograms grace the ends, a hallmark of 19th- to early-20th-century French trousseau linens, when each piece was lovingly embroidered for a brideâs dowry chest.
This extra-long size (approx. 62â Ã 12â) may once have dressed an elongated bolster or traversin, the long cylindrical pillows used across French beds and daybeds in elegant boudoirs. In todayâs world, it makes the perfect body pillow cover as it's naturally breathable, cooling, and timelessly chic.
Why we love linen:
⢠100 % natural fiber that grows softer with every wash.
⢠Naturally hypoallergenic, antimicrobial, and moisture-wicking, ideal for restful sleep.
⢠Sustainable and beautifully enduring, with that effortless French lived-in texture.
