silk duvet - extra light
Super fine organic cotton batiste cover filled with luxurious natural wild silk. The duvet feels light, soft and snuggly.
It is recommended for people who are very sensitive to their environment.
The silk used in this duvet is wild silk meaning it is harvested after the silk worm/moth has left the cocoon. The texture is more irregular than conventional fine silk making this an excellent filling material.
Silk is very temperature and moisture balancing and particularly effective at cooling when temperatures are high which is why silk worms protect themselves from the humid, tropical climate of Asia by wrapping themselves in silk threads.
Tog rating: 3
- made in Germany
- our duvets are quilted to better envelope you as your sleep, keeping out draughts
- cotton ties on the corner allow you to combine with other duvets for extra weight and warmth
- we cut our duvets generously to allow for the initial shrinkage in the first few weeks, due to heat and moisture created during sleeping.
How to care for your silk duvet:
Duvets made with animal fibres such as silk will regenerate themselves naturally, simply air your duvet regularly, outside whenever possible. You can spot clean any marks or stains with a silk detergent, just make sure it's totally dry before putting back in the cover. We don't tend to recommend dry cleaning due to the environmental impact, but if you need to then please search out an eco-friendly one.
