Monogrammed Silk Pillowcases for Weddings and Trousseaux

Wedding gifts in India tend to fall into two piles: the things couples use every day, and the things that are packed away and forgotten. A monogrammed silk pillowcase belongs firmly in the first. It's personal, it's beautiful, and it's used every single night.

Why It Works as a Wedding Gift

• It's personal without being risky. A single initial says it was chosen for them, without guessing their taste in décor.
• It's genuinely useful. Mulberry silk is kinder to skin and hair than cotton, which is especially welcome in the run of late nights, makeup and hair styling that a wedding brings.
• It lasts. At 22 momme, good silk keeps its finish for years with gentle care.
• It's easy to give. Light, flat and easy to ship, even to a couple in another city.

For the Trousseau

A trousseau is built from the pieces a bride will use and keep. A pair of monogrammed silk pillowcases sits naturally beside personalised towels, a monogrammed robe and monogrammed bedding, and ties the set together with one initial or one colour.

Choosing the Initial

• One each. Give a pair: one pillowcase with each partner's first initial.
• The shared surname. One initial on both pillowcases, for a couple who will share a name.
• Just the bride. For a trousseau, the bride's own initial.

Check the spelling and the initial with someone close to the couple before you order. Embroidered silk can't be re-done.

Choosing the Colour

Cream is the safest and the most chosen: it goes with white hotel sheets, linen and almost any bedding. Rose gold is warmer and more glamorous, lovely for a bride. Silver suits a cooler, more minimal bedroom. See the full silk pillowcase collection.

When to Order

Monogrammed pieces are made to order and usually dispatched within 3–4 working days, then take 3–7 days with our courier partners. For a wedding, order at least two weeks ahead, and earlier in peak wedding season from November to February. If you're gifting a whole trousseau, start with the bedding, which takes longest.

Build a Gift Around It

• The bedside set: two monogrammed silk pillowcases.
• The bath set: silk pillowcases with a pair of organic monogrammed bath towels.
• The full set: pillowcases, towels and matching robes.
