Description
Bring extra luxury to your bedding with this set of two pillowcases, crafted from pure Egyptian cotton with a sateen weave for a smooth handfeel. They're made in a timeless Oxford style, and have a dense 230 thread count. Our StayNew™ technology keeps them looking their best for longer, while a non-iron finish makes laundry a breeze.
Our Stylist Says
I love these pillowcases for their crisp, elegant look and high-quality feel. The Egyptian cotton and 230 thread count make them both durable and beautifully soft-perfect for adding a touch of luxury without sacrificing practicality. The putty shade is versatile and works well in both contemporary and classic interiors, especially in neutral or earthy colour schemes. For styling tips, consider pairing these with a textured duvet cover or layering with a chunky throw for a cosy yet refined look. They’re an excellent choice for creating a calming, sophisticated bedroom aesthetic, especially when you want a subtle colour that complements a range of decor styles.

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.
