Ranked #5 in Best Silk Pillowcases

$38

Alaska Bear is the entry-point silk pillowcase: real 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk with OEKO-TEX certification at roughly a third of the premium brands' pricing. The 19-momme weave is genuinely thinner than the 22-momme cases, but for first-time silk buyers who aren't ready to spend $70+ on a single pillowcase, it delivers the core silk benefits at the lowest viable entry price.

Strengths
  • 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk at the lowest price in this round-up
  • OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified — chemical-safety baseline matches premium brands
  • Hidden zipper closure with 600 thread count construction
Watch-outs
  • 19-momme weave is thinner and less substantial than 22+ momme rivals
  • Zipper and packaging feel budget compared to DTC premium brands
  • Softness can degrade after repeated machine washes

Blissy is the most heavily marketed silk pillowcase brand for skin and acne benefits, with clinical-study claims and dermatologist endorsements that competitors don't carry.

  • 22-momme Grade 6A mulberry silk with OEKO-TEX certification
  • Hidden zipper closure for a secure fit
  • Fully machine-washable on gentle in a mesh bag

How they stack up

Alaska Bear Natural Silk Pillowcase 19 Momme

Genuinely thinner-feeling than the 22-momme Quince 100% Mulberry Silk Pillowcase and the 22-momme Brooklinen Mulberry Silk Pillowcase 22 Momme, but at a third of the price of Quince's and roughly a sixth of the price of the Blissy 100% Mulberry 22-Momme Silk Pillowcase. Lighter than every other pillowcase in this round-up — the LilySilk 25 Momme Terse Envelope Luxury Pillowcase has roughly 32 percent more silk per unit area. The trade-off is honest: less silk, less polish, much lower price.

Blissy 100% Mulberry 22-Momme Silk Pillowcase

Built on the same 22-momme Grade 6A mulberry silk as the Quince 100% Mulberry Silk Pillowcase but costs more than twice as much, with brand marketing leaning heavily on clinical-study skin claims. Comparable in fabric quality to the Brooklinen Mulberry Silk Pillowcase 22 Momme, with a hidden zipper instead of envelope closure and a shorter trial window. Lighter and thinner-feeling than the LilySilk 25 Momme Terse Envelope Luxury Pillowcase, which delivers more silk mass for less money.
