These are pretty nice. Kinda pricey for two pillow cases, and the red seems to have "bled" onto the cream color. I bought them to accentuate the toile red and cream quilt set that I bought for Christmas. I think they'll be nice enough for that purpose, but I don't think they have a high thread count, if that interests you. ( It does for me.) Thankfully, they aren't microfiber! But pretty enough to satisfy the Christmas-y look.
