A number of factors come into play while choosing silk covers; some of these are the thread count , the momme weight , the manufacturing process and most importantly the feel. Its all about the feel of the silk. That is what you must base your buying decision on.
It is important to research the kind of silk being used for the pillow cover. Sometimes the manufacturer's leave you guessing about the kind or type of silk used. If the pillows are of mulberry silk or charmeuse silk , you are on the right track. However if they are tussar or raw silk , take it with a pinch of salt. You can research the type of silk on the net and make sure that the store has a very forgiving return policy. What you are getting may not be suitable for a dreamless sleep.

Few manufacturers talk about the quality of thread used to put the pillow case together. Take time also to check out the design. There are zippered styles, open sack styles and hidden flap styles of pillowcases. The best of these are the hidden flap styles that use a flap to hold the pillow in place . Open sack styles are the easiest to find.
If the momme weight is between 16 and 19 you are in good shape. 400 to 500 is a good thread count number.
With these pointers in mind happy buying and enjoy your sleep.
