Antik Matelasse Decorative Pillow
Frequently Asked Questions
What fabric is the Antik Matelasse Decorative Pillow made from?
The Antik Matelasse Decorative Pillow is 81% cotton and 19% linen, woven in a jacquard matelassé construction that uses thick filling yarn to mimic an antique hand quilt. The greige loomstate fabric is then garment-washed at MATTEO's Los Angeles facility, which softens the weave and produces a subtle color variegation where the cotton and linen fibers absorb dye at different rates.
What sizes does the Antik Matelasse Decorative Pillow come in, and is a pillow insert included?
The Antik Matelasse Decorative Pillow is available in two sizes: 18 x 18 inches (46 x 46 cm) and 22 x 22 inches (56 x 56 cm). Every pillow ships with a 100% white duck feather insert included.
How do I wash and care for the Antik Matelasse Decorative Pillow?
Machine wash in lukewarm water with a gentle detergent, separating light and dark colors, and avoid overloading the machine. Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly to reduce wrinkling; do not iron. Because this pillow is garment-dyed, avoid any products containing chlorine bleach, alpha hydroxy acids, or benzoyl peroxide, which will strip the reactive dyes. For full guidance, visit MATTEO's garment-dyeing care page.
How does the Antik Matelasse Decorative Pillow work in a layered bed setup?
The matelassé texture adds dimensional relief against flat-weave bedding, so these pillows pair especially well with percale or linen sheets for a layered bed with visual depth. The garment-washed finish means the pattern reads as intentional whether the pillow is pressed or relaxed, which suits both styled and lived-in bedrooms.
