100% Mulbery Silk Sheets – 19 Momme

Are Silk Sheets Worth The Money?

Silk sheets can offer a luxurious feel and may help provide breathable, temperature regulating bedding. Some people may find that silk helps with certain skin conditions. Pure silk is a high quality natural fibre.

Manufacturers use it to make a smooth, breathable fabric that drapes well. These qualities make silk fabric a desirable option for bed sheets.

Silk and its properties

Silk comes from the cocoons of silkworms. Silkworms secrete single silk strands from their silk glands to spin their cocoon. Boiling or steaming the cocoon unravels the silk strands, which people can make into thread and fabric.

Although there are different types of silk, up to 90% of silk production in the world is from mulberry silk. Mulberry silk comes from the mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori.

Why choose silk sheets?

Certain properties of a silk sheet make it a sought-after material in comparison with others, such as cotton. These properties include:

• strong yet lightweight
• natural sheen
• low heat conduction, which means that it stays cool in hot weather and warm in cool weather
• low static cling
• drapes well

According to a National Sleep Association, using high quality silk bed sheets may help improve sleep by providing comfort.

Sheets made from silk are breathable fabric that may help the body regulate temperature. Sleeping at a comfortable temperature helps people maintain a healthy sleep cycle, which is important for cognitive function and overall health.

Skin health

Some research has found that silk-like materials may also provide certain benefits for the skin.

One clinical trial examined the effects of pillowcase fabric on acne in 40 participants. They used either a cotton pillowcase or a silk-like pillowcase that contained antimicrobial technology.

However, the silk-like pillowcase was made of nylon and polyester rather than actual silk, so it is unclear if silk bedding would provide similar benefits.

Using silk sheets may help with skin conditions. This is because it is a natural fiber. Many companies claim that their silk sheets are hypoallergenic.

Also, one 2013 study from a trusted source suggested that silk-like materials may make better bedding and hospital gowns than cotton for people with pressure lesions. The researchers suggested that silk-like materials may help by reducing friction and absorbing moisture.

How to choose the right silk bed sheet?

People measure the weight and quality of silk using a unit of measurement called the momme. A higher momme value generally indicates higher quality.

People may want to choose silk that the manufacturers have made with minimal chemical additives. This may minimize the risk of allergic reactions or irritation not caused by a silk allergy.

A National Sleep Association recommends choosing a silk fabric weight of 15 momme or above.

People can also choose silk with light colors or natural dyes to reduce the risk of having a reaction to the chemicals in the fabric.

Researching online customer reviews from multiple sources can help people determine a brand’s reputation and a product’s quality.
