Price History
Description
These pillowcases from Historic Royal Palaces will make a charming addition to your bedding. The pattern, inspired by an 1850 gentleman's silk waistcoat, features delicate stripes and florals for a refined look. It's printed on soft cotton percale fabric with a 200 thread count and is finished with mock Oxford edges.
Our Stylist Says
I love these pillowcases for adding a touch of vintage elegance to a neutral or traditional bedroom. The stripe design and light pink palette make them versatile, pairing well with both classic and contemporary interiors. They’re especially effective when layered with plain linen or subtly patterned bedding to enhance texture without overwhelming the space. Practical styling tips include mixing them with other soft pastel accessories or pairing with a coordinating throw to create a cohesive look. These pillowcases are an excellent way to introduce a gentle colour pop while maintaining a refined, timeless aesthetic.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
