The following differences relate to the size and number of pillowcases. In Russia they are used to sleeping on square pillows, while Europeans prefer rectangular ones. Usually this size is 70 by 50 cm.

As part of the euro set, there can be either two or four pillowcases, which may differ from each other. For example, one pair will rectangular shape, the other is square. There may also be differences in color (within the color range of the kit).
