Momme (mm) measures the weight and density of silk fabric. The higher the momme weight, the denser and heavier the silk.
At 22 momme, silk pillowcases offer a medium-weight feel that many customers consider the ideal balance between softness, durability, and luxury. Compared to 19 momme silk, 22 momme contains more silk and has a slightly denser weave while still maintaining a smooth, breathable charmeuse finish.

For shoppers looking for the best balance of silk weight, breathability and everyday luxury, 22 Momme is our signature choice.
Unlike cotton pillowcases, which can create friction against hair overnight, silk provides a naturally smooth surface that allows hair to glide more easily while you sleep. This helps reduce:
Our 22 momme silk pillowcases are especially popular among customers with curly hair, textured hair, extensions, and chemically treated hair who want a smoother sleep surface that helps minimize friction overnight.
Independent laboratory testing found that Mulberry Park Silks’ pure mulberry silk fabric creates 34% less friction than cotton, helping minimize breakage, tangles, and morning frizz.
This smoother surface reduces the force placed on hair strands as they move across the fabric during sleep.
"High friction is like a nightly tug-of-war that your skin and hair are losing. Switching to a low-friction surface stops that constant pulling and lets your body focus on repair.” - Dr. Maressa Alejandro
The smooth charmeuse weave of 22 momme silk helps reduce friction against delicate facial skin while maintaining a soft, breathable sleep surface.
Many customers choose 22 momme silk pillowcases to help minimize:
Silk's natural structure prevents overnight moisture loss and improves the absorption of skincare products.
22 momme silk pillowcases are naturally breathable and temperature regulating helping maintain a comfortable sleep environment throughout the year.
Mulberry silk naturally helps dissipate excess heat and wick away moisture while remaining cool and smooth against the skin. Many hot sleepers prefer silk bedding because it feels cool to the touch without the heaviness often associated with dense fabrics.
Compared to 19 momme silk, 22 momme has a slightly more substantial feel while still remaining breathable and comfortable for year-round use.
