Matouk Astor Braid Sham

Matelassé is a weaving technique that mimics the look of a padded quilt. It feels substantial and textured, offering a soft, slightly raised diamond pattern that adds depth to your bed without the bulk of a traditional comforter.

A knife-edge finish means the sham has a clean, tailored seam where the front and back fabrics meet, without any extra fabric border or flange. This gives the sham a sleek, modern profile that sits flat against the pillow.

Yes, it is designed for straightforward maintenance. You can machine wash it in warm water and tumble dry on low, making it practical for regular use.

The decorative braid is securely stitched to withstand standard laundering. To keep the embroidery looking its best, we recommend washing on a gentle cycle and avoiding high heat in the dryer.

Absolutely. Because the diamond matelassé texture is subtle and monochromatic, it acts as a neutral base. It pairs easily with patterned duvet covers or bold accent pillows without making the bed look cluttered.
