Embroidered Pillow Shams For Timeless Bedroom Elegance

Dress up your bedroom with the luxurious look of embroidered pillow shams. Our line of pillow shams brings classic elegance to the fore thanks to their crisp white base and bold textured patterns. Discover how a set of pillow shams can work for your modern style.

How to Use Pillow Shams

Pillow shams bring decorative character to your bedroom decor. Shams are placed against the headboard or the wall against your bed. Since they typically feature extra fabric, or flanges, along the border, shams add a distinct look behind your pillowcases and create depth and dimension to the overall aesthetic of your bed.

Designs can be vibrant or understated. They might be intricately textured or subtly inspired. Choose pillow shams that coordinate (or colorfully contrast) with your existing bedroom motif. Keep in mind that shams are also handy when you want to sit up in bed and need extra back support.

Features of our Embroidered Pillow Shams

Bold colors contrast the crisp white base of our embroidered pillow shams. Find shades like gray, navy and camel. These colors bring sharp definition to our striped and our Greek key designs.

As with most pillow shams, ours come in three sizes: standard, king and Euro. These sizes complement the size of your bed. Standard shams are found on twin or full-sized beds, while king shams pair with king-sized beds. Euro shams are square-shaped pillows - perfect for creating variation and visual texture against standard shams or pillowcases.

Fabulous Details

Our embroidered pillow shams are made from supersoft cotton percale with a 300-thread count. These shams are crafted with either satin stitching or bourdon stitching and feature a discreet envelope closure for easy removal and washing. Look for styles with an option to include a monogram if you want to add a personal touch to your own set - or as a unique gift.

Other Ways to Elevate Your Home Decor

After you've selected embroidered pillow shams, consider other ways to add rich visual flair to your home. Enliven dinnertime with dinner and cloth napkins bursting with textured detail. Don't discount smaller items. Even drink coasters can add personality to your home. Choose from materials and textures like marble, wood, woven nito or stainless steel. Finish the look of any room with perfect ambient lighting. Williams Sonoma offers a variety of styles to inspire your modern, mid-century or boho-chic design motif.
