cowoman Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Hello can anyone point me in the direction as to where to buy English oblong pillows in France.I made a really big mistake by not putting a few thousand of them in the van that bought our furniture down.I have now got millions of pillowcases but no pillows.Oh what a fool I amp.s I am prone to exaggerate somewhat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clair Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Not sure what you mean by English oblong pillows... but if you look here, you can select your pillows (oreillers) by sizes (bottom left, under taille). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowoman Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 Thanks for that.I mean just the ordinary size pillows that come with any duvet set in England.Not the square ones that are generally on sale in France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassis Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Loads of places around here sell them now. Like Leclerc and Carrefour. They do those really good "sculpted, dimply" pillows now in the UK size oblong shape, too. And they sell the pillowcases to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 CowomanI buy mine every time I go back to the UK. I cannot get used to the French shape and, like you. I have thousands (not millions) [Www] of UK-size pillow cases.But if you are not going back to the UK soon, this is a French site (that is also in English) and if you click on pages 2 and 3 of the pillows lozenge, there are UK shaped pilows, which can be delivered.http://www.maisondeloreiller.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassis Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Years ago it was true that almost all pillows in France were square (or bolsters). But there is no shortage of UK shape pillows in the shops now. Not as many as the square ones, but not that hard to find. And loads on websites like Cathy's mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
