30 momme silk is a high-quality silk fabric weighing 30 momme per square metre. At this weight, the fabric is denser, heavier and more durable than standard silk: the most substantial momme weight available for a silk pillowcase.

Momme (abbreviated mm) is the weight measurement for silk, equivalent to thread count in cotton. A higher momme number means more silk fibres woven per square metre, producing a heavier, denser and longer-lasting fabric. At 30 momme, silk sits at the premium end of the range: noticeably weightier to the touch, slower to show wear over time, and with a richer drape than lighter weights.

For a pillowcase, 30 momme is the choice for those who want the most luxurious feel available. It suits cooler sleepers, those who prefer a weighted, substantial fabric, and anyone who washes their bedding frequently and wants maximum durability from their silk. If you run warm at night or want a lighter everyday feel, our 22 momme pillowcases are the better fit.

What does 30 momme mean?

Momme measures the weight of silk per square metre. 30 momme means the fabric contains more silk fibres per square metre than lighter weights, producing a thicker, denser weave with a more substantial hand feel.

Is 30 momme silk worth the price?

Yes. The higher momme weight means more silk per pillowcase, which translates to greater durability and a longer lifespan. Combined with our 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk, it is the highest quality pillowcase we offer.

Who is 30 momme best for?

30 momme suits cooler sleepers, those who prefer a heavier, more weighted fabric, and anyone who wants maximum longevity from their silk pillowcase. It is also the better choice if you wash your bedding frequently.

Hair and skin

Is a 30 momme silk pillowcase good for hair and skin?

Yes. A 30 momme silk pillowcase delivers the same low-friction, moisture-retaining benefits as all mulberry silk, with one key advantage: at a heavier weight, the denser weave holds its smooth surface for longer, sustaining those benefits through more washes over a longer lifespan.

Cotton creates friction against the hair shaft every time you move in your sleep, causing frizz, breakage and tangles to build up over time. The smooth surface of a 30 momme silk pillowcase eliminates that friction entirely. Hair glides across the fabric rather than catching against it, and because the 30 momme weave is denser than lighter silk, the surface stays smooth through repeated washing without thinning or pilling.

For skin, 30 momme silk retains the moisture-preserving properties of all mulberry silk while offering greater durability for those who wash their bedding frequently. The low-friction surface causes fewer sleep creases pressed into the skin overnight, and the denser weave means skincare products stay on your face rather than being absorbed into the pillow.

Is 30 momme silk worth the extra cost?

Yes, if you want the most durable and luxurious silk pillowcase available. 30 momme contains more silk fibres per square metre than lighter weights, which means a heavier, richer feel and a longer lifespan — particularly if you wash your bedding frequently. Both our 22 momme and 30 momme pillowcases use 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk and deliver the same hair and skin benefits. The difference is feel and longevity. If you prefer a lighter, more breathable everyday pillowcase, our 22 momme collection at £64.99 is the better fit.

What is the difference between 30 momme and 22 momme silk?

Momme measures the weight of silk fabric per square metre. 30 momme is heavier, denser and slightly more durable than 22 momme. The 30 momme weave has a more substantial, weighted feel, while 22 momme is lighter, softer in drape and more breathable. Both weights use 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk and provide identical hair and skin benefits. 30 momme suits those who prefer a rich, premium feel and want maximum longevity. 22 momme is the most popular choice for everyday use and warm sleepers.

Is a 30 momme silk pillowcase good for hair?

Yes. A 30 momme silk pillowcase reduces overnight friction against the hair shaft in the same way as all mulberry silk pillowcases, helping to minimise frizz, tangles and breakage. The advantage of 30 momme specifically is durability: the denser weave holds its smooth surface for longer, so the friction-reducing benefit is sustained through more washes over a longer period. For fine, colour-treated or chemically processed hair, both 22 momme and 30 momme deliver the same overnight benefit.

How do I wash a 30 momme silk pillowcase?

Wash on a cool gentle cycle at 30 degrees or below using a specialist silk detergent or a small amount of gentle shampoo. Do not tumble dry. Lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Iron on the lowest silk setting if needed, or smooth by hand while the fabric is still slightly damp. Avoid fabric softener and bleach entirely. The 30 momme weave is denser than lighter silk, so it is naturally more resilient, but the same care guidelines apply. With proper care, a 30 momme silk pillowcase will retain its smoothness, weight and sheen for years.

What momme weight is best for a silk pillowcase?

For most people, 22 momme is the most versatile everyday weight: lightweight, breathable and the most widely recommended by dermatologists and hair specialists. 30 momme is the better choice if you want the heaviest, most durable option available and prefer a more substantial feel. Both weights use the same 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk and deliver the same hair and skin benefits. Anything below 19 momme is considered entry-level and will show wear more quickly. Anything above 25 momme, including our 30 momme pillowcases, sits firmly in the premium range.
