What is a European pillow?
European pillows, or euro pillows/shams, are small to large square or rectangular pillows that dress up a bed. They usually sit behind or in front of the regular bed pillows that are slept on. These European pillows are often covered with decorative pillow cases that fit your bed and bedroom’s theme. A European pillow adds a lot of class and sophistication to your bedroom’s décor.

What are European pillows good for?
Large square pillows, known as "European pillows" or continental pillows, are frequently used as decorative accents on beds. As a backrest for sitting up in bed, a cushion for the neck and head, or a barrier between the legs for side sleepers, they can offer support and comfort for various sleeping positions. European pillows can also add a touch of sophistication and elegance to any bedroom decor. They come in various materials, including feather and down and synthetic fill.
Do I need European pillows?
If you want to boost your bedroom décor, then you can never have too many European pillows. For Queen beds, 4-6 European pillows work great. For King beds, 6-8 European pillows can be added, so you may need some if your bed is already lacking in décor. Even if your preferences in taste are simple, your European pillow covers can also be simple, like solid colours. The main element of its aesthetic is in its added dimension, and of course, added coziness.
