The 15 Best Silk Sheets Money Can Buy

Best Overall

These supple sheets tick all the boxes—they are 100 percent, 6A rated 22 Momme Mulberry silk sheets without a seam to snag or a chemical additive used during manufacture to irritate sensitive skins. The charmeuse finish is shiny without looking for a second like a polyester imitation, and the subtle seven shades including rose quartz, sand and silver will coordinate with any color scheme you’ve already got going on in your boudoir. (These sheets are so pretty, you’ll never want to pull a comforter over top of these.)

Best Value Silk Sheets

This sheet set costs half of what some comparable brands run, but they have the quality (19 Momme Mulberry silk) and color (six rich shades including peacock blue, we see you) that you want. They still aren’t exactly a budget purchase, but remember, silk is so strong, this is an investment in years of future great sleep.

Best Silk Sheets Splurge

At $500 per sheet, these London-designed sheets have a distinctive Old World elegance and craftsmanship—as well as just plain gorgeousness. Long-strand Mulberry silk is woven into nude, ivory, charcoal and similarly restrained shades that promise to puddle fetchingly around you as you pose in bed, or lean back on one of the elegantly flanged pillow shams.

Best Satin Sheets

Pure long-strand, 25 Momme Mulberry silk comes in a satin weave. All seven colors are gorgeous, but the mint especially gets our vote for playing classic Hollywood screen siren in the comfort of our own bedroom.

Best Silk Sheets on Amazon

The 25 Momme weight is the smoothest and most lustrous weight of Mulberry silk available, and this set of top flat sheet, bottom fitted sheet and two pillowcases has all the shine and comfort you’d ever want. In five shades including light coffee and black, these get our vote for blending into a wide range of décor from traditional to modernist.

Best Silk Sheets for Multiple Size Options

When shopping for silk sheets, you might be disappointed to find that many designers create their luxe goods only in Queen and King sizes. So you’ll be thrilled that these sheets come in California King, as well as Twin, Full, Queen and King. And in ten irresistible shades, including the best red we’ve seen this side of a Chanel lipstick.

Best Silk Sheets for Color Options

These 100 percent Mulberry silk, 22 Momme sheets come in 8 satiny colors including a steel grey and rich plum. A generous 16-inch pocket on the fitted sheet keeps everything in place, and it comes with a top sheet and two pillowcases.

Best Sheets Sold Individually

With a weight that’s right in the middle of the thickest and lightest silks, and a fabrication of superior Grade 6A Mulberry silk, this sheet is the bullseye perfect choice for starting that slippery slope into the silk sheet lifestyle, one piece at a time. In seven rich colors that skew towards neutral (along with a snazzy ballerina pink tone), you can’t make a wrong move here.

Best Vegan Silk Sheets

These all-bamboo viscose sheets aren’t made with any animal products, and users love them for being as lightweight and slippery-smooth as silk. Other bonuses are that bamboo is breathable (so no sweaty nights) as well as being naturally hypoallergenic.

Best Silk Cotton

With a 55 percent silk / 45 percent combed cotton fabric combination, these sheets combine the lightweight softness of silk with the comfort of cotton. And the six colors are equally balanced, with pastel pink and teal shades as soft as these sheets feel.

Best Luxury Sheets

Italian luxury home goods brand Anichini has introduced a shimmering blue-on-blue pattern that, one imagines, might surpass the ones that even a principessa sleeps on. Made to order in Germany of washable silk sateen, a set contains a top and bottom sheet and is truly the stuff dreams are made of.

Best for Hot Sleepers

One hundred percent Grade A, 19 Momme silk is lightweight, and temperature-regulating enough to be comfortable for hot sleepers. This set is a duvet cover and two pillowcases, so you can either pair with a matching fitted sheet or coordinate with a sheet that’s currently in your bedding collection.

Best Jewel Tone Silk

These intense hues signal a fashion-forward design scheme, with five intense hues including teal and wine. Made from 25 Momme silk satin, these are dependably warm and have a delicious drape.

Best Patterned Silk Sheets

The delicate gingko leaf pattern on these sheets is playful, while the Grade A Mulberry silk is serious comfort. And with a 16 Momme weight, these sheets guarantee year-round comfort.

Best Silk Pillowcase

In 10 sorbet shades including swirled white and pink marble patterns, these pure Mulberry silk pillowcases are sold for those who might not want an entire bed full of silk, but appreciate how the natural silk fiber helps preserve a line-free complexion. (Why not go full Blanche DuBois and pair with a matching eye mask?)
