How to care for your silk duvet.
Silk duvet care is easy.
Taking a few easy steps to care for your silk duvet will prolong it's life and bring you many happy years of silky sleep.
Silk duvets benefit from a thorough airing every few months. This allows the duvet to 'breathe' and helps the silk fibers that may have slightly compacted during use to rejuvenate. Along with the airing process, sunlight will help evaporate any moisture that may have been retained in the duvet through normal use.
In the event of a spillage or stain, treat the area with a damp cloth and if required use a light detergent like Tenestar� to clean the soiled area.For larger stains we recommend a professional cleaner who understands silk. This is because silk fiber is susceptible to high heat and domestic washing machines could damage the fibers.
Because silk duvets are made up of layer upon layer of silk, they are able to allow some of our body heat to escape through them while we sleep. Conventional duvets work much like a pressure cooker. We lie under them and our body heat is reflected back to us. This continues throughout the night creating more and more heat until we can't take the temperature anymore and throw the duvet off. By allowing some of the heat to escape, silk duvets keep us at a more constant temperature and we therefore have a better sleep.
Always use your duvet with a conventional duvet cover. All our duets are manufactured to standard U.K. sizes. Please see our Silk duvet sizes chart for more information on duvet sizes.
When not in use we recommend your duvet be stored in a cool dry place,
Following the above simple steps will ensure your duvet stays in premium condition for many years of enjoyment, allowing you to get on with the more important business of blissful sleep.

Combination duvets easily fasten together.
All Silksleep duvets have been tacked which stops the silk moving about in the casing, but eliminates the possibility of large cold spots occuring which can be created by pocket stitching.
