Product Insights
This 140 GSM European linen sham from Simons Maison offers certified long-staple flax for pilling resistance and a 20-30 year lifespan, draping fluidly and softening quickly, with breathability that stays cool and dry in humidity, all at 50 CAD—cheaper than Parachute’s heavier shams—though white may be semi-sheer, requires air drying to preserve weave, expects 3-10% initial shrinkage, and develops desired wrinkles over time.

|---|---|---|
| Pure European Linen Pillow Sham See Available Sizes: Choose this if you want a 100% certified European linen sham (Masters of FLAX FIBRE™, 140 GSM) whose breathable, thermoregulating fabric reviewers say feels gentle and cozy year-round, including in warm, humid climates. It comes in Standard/Queen (20 by 30 inches) and King (20 by 36 inches) sizes in White or Sand, with an envelope closure and a textured weave that customers say gives a high-end, designer look. Note that the linen wrinkles after washing, so regular ironing is needed to keep it crisp, according to one reviewer.[1,2] | Pure European Linen Contrasting Trim Pillow Sham See Available Sizes: Choose this if you want a breathable, easy-care linen sham with thermoregulating comfort for year-round bedding, made of 100 percent Masters of FLAX FIBRE certified European linen in a classic black-and-white pattern with contrasting black trim. This Patterned Ecru variant is a Euro-size square measuring 26 inches by 26 inches, closes with an exposed zipper, and pairs with a matching duvet cover sold separately. Note the slub texture and irregular weave give the beige face a raw, linen-character look that suits a relaxed, warm-toned decor rather than a smooth, uniform finish.[3,4] | Two-Tone Striped Pillow Sham: Choose this if you need a body pillow-size (21 by 54 inches) lumbar-style sham in a black-and-white striped palette, made of 100% organic cotton with a 144 threadcount and a matching back. It suits decor that leans on simple, graphic contrast, though some stripe lines appear slightly irregular in thickness with faint puckering along a lower corner edge, so expect a slightly handmade look rather than perfectly uniform printing.[5,6,7] |
