Is silk the coolest material for a summer duvet?

Yes. Silk's natural thermoregulating properties and 'cool touch' make it the most effective material for dissipating heat during extreme summer temperatures.

How does a silk duvet feel on the skin?

Silk is incredibly supple and has a 'fluid' drape. It contours perfectly to your body, providing a sleek, luxurious, and non-restrictive feel.

Is it good for people who sweat a lot?

Yes. Silk wicks away moisture and evaporates it instantly, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable even on humid, warm nights.

Is a summer silk duvet hypoallergenic?

Yes. Natural silk proteins repel dust mites and bacteria, providing a sterile and soothing sleep environment for sensitive sleepers.

How do I care for my summer silk duvet?

Simply air it in the shade. Silk is self-cleaning, so regular ventilation is all that is needed to maintain its quality and freshness.

Silk Summer Duvet

Sleeping under a silk summer duvet is, according to many, a true sleep sensation! Silk is velvety soft and super light. Silk can absorb about 30% of its own weight in moisture. Under a silk duvet, you'll never sleep feeling clammy and you'll wake up feeling nicely rested. Silk comes from the cocoon of the silkworm caterpillar, making it an animal fibre. A 100% silk summer duvet is hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites.

Wild Silk

Wild silk, the cheaper option. Wild silk duvets are filled with short fibres, flakes. It is also known as Tussah silk. The only way to keep this silk in the duvet is to stitch it completely through in squares. A silk duvet filled with wild silk naturally does not have the same insulation and ventilation values as mulberry silk. Also, the lifespan of the duvet is a lot shorter, but in return, it is considerably cheaper.

Mulberry Silk

Mulberry silk, if you only go for the very best. Mulberry silk is silk of long fibres with a very high insulation and ventilation value. All our Sichou duvets are filled with 100% mulberry silk of the very best quality.
