Pair of housewife pillowcases with luxurious and plump bow sash ties at one end, making bedtime that little bit more beautiful. Finshed to perfection with pure silk piping.

Why is it called the Housewife? In the 1880s the Housewives Co-operative in Bolton adapted a standard pillowcase to include an inside flap at the end, keeping the pillowcase in place. This clever alteration led to this style of pillowcase being known as "housewife" pillowcases in the co-operative's honour.
