Why the 65x65 Format Exists Alongside the Rectangular One

65x65 cm corresponds to the square pillow format typical in Continental Europe (Germany, Switzerland, Nordic countries), often used on its own or alongside a rectangular pillow, notably to support the head or upper back.

How to Check It's the Right Size for Your Pillow

Measure the pillow flat, without compressing it, edge to edge: a 2-3 cm gap with the pillowcase isn't an issue thanks to silk's natural give, but a noticeably larger pillow will overflow the case.

"65x65 isn't a marginal 'bonus' size — it's the reference pillow format in several European countries, and Silkhouse offers it in 100% mulberry silk at the same weight as the rectangular format. "

The Right Fit, Without Compromising on Quality

Whether you need the square or rectangular format, the same 22-momme silk guarantees the same softness and durability — only the format changes, never the quality of the fiber.
