ABOUT SILK QUILT
Silk quilt is extra soft, light and warm.
It is renowned for its "warm in winter and cool in summer" feature. It is like a thermostat. It is "breathable".
Silk is naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mite, therefore very protective to skin and health.

Silk is harvested from silkworms which feed on natural and pesticides-free mulberry leaves.
Silkworms, which produce cocoons where the natural silk come from, are very delicate.
Even a small tinge of pesticide left on the leaves is lethal to the silkworms,
thus strictly forbidden to be used while the mulberry trees are growing.

Silk is naturally hypoallergenic, dust mites don’t like it. Silk’s “breath-ability” makes it
warm in winter, cool in summer. The Chinese and Japanese have enjoyed Silk bedding for many generations.
The Chinese believe that the amino acids present in silk are beneficial to the skin,
whereby they activate the human skin cells to: Prevent vascular sclerosis,
Relieve itchy skin, Assist in preventing arthritis & asthma.

Silk is composed of protein (97%) and other ingredients, which is in common with human body.
Silk filament has 33%-38% of space in structure, which can keep air and moisture. In hot weather,
silk can absorb and tranfer extra heat and moisture and thus keep a comfortable sleeping environment.
In cold weather, because of the air in the silk filament, the silk quilt is insulated so that the heat inside is not lost.
Therefore the silk quilt is natural and “breathable”. It can create a unique "warm in winter,
cool in summer", effect for which it is renowned.
Because silk is natural and "breathable" the characteristics of a silk filled quilt are such
that it is much more flexible than quilts with other fillings, such as down, feather or polyester
in coping with changes in your sleeping environment, such as ambient room temperature and your
own body temperature.

How to clean and care?
Washing either by hand or machine is not recommended, although the structure
of silk quilt won’t be damaged due to its strong and stable feature.
However, if cleaned by water, the silk quilt will become less soft and fluffy.
Only by airing under sun and patting can you restore the silk quilt's original feature.
In case that localised spillages happens, carefully hand washed with non-biological detergent suitable for
washing silk and wollen. Alkaline detergent is forbidden as it will ruin protein
in the silk and thus damage the silk quilt entirely.
After 14-30 days of continuous use, it is recommended that the silk quilt be regularly aired without
a cover in mild sunshine for 1-2 hours. Beat it lightly to make it fluffy.
Since the silk is protein, never expose to strong sunlight or dry it in high temperature.

Smell: inferior silk gives off a slight smell of chemicals and silkworm pupa, which will become stronger in more humid and warmer enviornment during use. This smell is definately harmful to your health, especially to those who have allergic constitution.
Color: 100% natural silk floss has a soft and lustrous pearly color; in contrast, as a result of bleaching, inferior floss looks artificially white and shiny.
Hand feel: pure silk floss feels more delicate yet less smoother than lower-grade ones which have been treated by machines.
Length of silk filament: The most exquisite silk quilt is made of long and unbroken mulberry silk which is stretched and handlayered one by one in a criss-cross pattern. It is very smooth and even throughout the silk quilt; in contrast, silk in machine-made silk quilt is usually broken. Shake the silk quilt quickly, if it is made by machine, tiny dust-like fibres can be seen falling down from the silk quilt. These fluff may enter the respiration systems and further do harm to people's health, especially to babies and children.
