Silk Pillowcase Guide
This guide explains how to sort a silk pillowcase choice and what to include in an inquiry. It is a guide only: it presents no pillowcase as a supplied design, and it states no claim about any item.
Start with the list, not with a single item
A pillowcase choice starts with the list: how many items, in which groups, and with which requirements beside each item. A single item seen on its own gives no sense of the list, and the questions that belong to one item can sit beside another item by mistake when the list has no grouping. Write the groups first, then the items, then the questions beside each item.
Pillowcases are listed in the company's Alibaba shop at category level, and this site covers them at category level only. The guide questions below apply to any pillowcase list, whatever its size. The family page gives the same inquiry shape for a settled list.
Size and shape questions
Size and shape words appear often in buyer searches for pillowcases, and buyers often arrive with a size or a shape in mind. This site publishes no size or shape claim for any item. Name the size and shape requirements in the inquiry, beside the items they belong to, and ask what applies to each item. The buyer's own terms for size belong in the message, written out in full.
When a list spans more than one size or shape, keep the sizes and shapes in separate groups, with the requirements named for each group. A mixed list with no grouping makes the questions harder to place, and a requirement for one group can sit beside an item from another group by mistake.
Colour questions
Colour words appear in buyer searches for pillowcases, and buyers often arrive with a colour in mind. This site publishes no colour claim for any item. Name the colour requirements in the inquiry, beside the items they belong to, and ask what applies to each item.
Putting the inquiry together
A finished inquiry carries the item list, the quantities beside each item, the destination market for the list as a whole, and anything to settle in writing beside the items it belongs to. Add the size, shape and colour requirements beside the items they belong to, and keep the list and the questions together in one message.
