    Love the Silk Quilts

    I recently purchased 6A Grade 100% mulberry silk quilts, and it was a fantastic deal. The quilt is lightweight yet very warm, making it perfect for Melbourne winters. The bundle also includes a summer quilt, which will be ideal for the warmer months.

    As a lover of silk quilts, I previously had a Queen-sized silk quilt. Since upgrading my bed to a King size, I decided to upgrade my quilt to a King-sized silk quilt as well. Thank you for providing such a great product!

    A silk quilt is a treat - but may not suit everyone

    These silk quilts are beautifully made, and are lovely to sleep under - the feeling is definitely different from being under blankets or a feather doona. They suited my husband beautifully but sadly I was still too hot even under the summer weight doona, even when the overnight low was 13 degrees. I'd been longing to try a silk doona for the temperature regulation - but unfortunately they didn't suit me. So in summary I think they are a high quality product with a beautiful feel. Whilst they don't suit me, I will feel that they will be a treat for our guests to sleep under.

    Hi Sue,

    Thank you for your kind words about our silk quilt! I'm sorry that it didn't perfectly suit you. Our quilts are indeed the lightest silk quilts available in Australia.

    The only better option for you (I can think of) is to use a silk flat sheet instead of a quilt (especially during warmer months). It offers a lighter feel while still providing the luxurious touch of silk.

    6A Grade 100% Mulberry Silk Quilts - Winter

    I recently purchased these quilts and was hoping that they lived up to the hype and not another epic Internet failure on my behalf. This was not so as they are certainly as described totally luxurious, warm and a joy to sleep under even in our very cold Canberra winters . I would not hesitate to recommend them .

Summer Silk Quilt

The Lightest Silk Quilt in Australia

Designed specifically for hot sleepers, our summer quilts with a TENCEL cover are the lightest silk quilts on the Australian market - a Queen size quilt weighs less than 2 kg.

Based on the feedback we receive from our customers, these quilts are also the ideal choice for women going through menopausal or post-menopausal transition.

Finally! You can stop night sweats and overheating and sleep peacefully without feeling too hot, no matter the temperature.

What Makes Our Silk Quilts Stand Out

Superior materials

You may wonder why our silk quilts are priced slightly higher than some of our competitors. The answer is simple - we only use the highest quality materials.

  • Our quilts are filled with 6A Grade Mulberry silk, the world's finest and most expensive silk.
  • Our cotton covers are manufactured from 400TC (thread count) 100% Cotton, a higher grade than the industry standard of 200-300TC.
  • For TENCEL covers, we use the original fabric produced by Lenzing, the leading European textile manufacturer.

Exceptional craftsmanship

Among the most modern in China, our manufacturing facility utilises advanced techniques and processes and employs highly skilled personnel.  

The attention to detail, from quilting and piping to packaging, contributes to the overall excellence of silk quilts.

Two cover materials - for a reason

Cotton is an excellent fabric for a quilt cover, which absorbs very little moisture during sleep, making it a perfect choice for people with dry or normal skin.

For those with sensitivities, a cotton cover can cause itchy, cracked, and irritated skin. So, we designed our silk quilts with a TENCEL cover, especially for people with sensitive skin (and allergies).

The only silk quilt in Australia of its type

We've introduced a unique design that allows you to remove the cotton cover and wash it separately from the silk filling.

We still recommend using a separate quilt cover, but our cotton cover provides the perfect protector for the silk filling.

Washing a silk quilt is now a breeze! You don't need to be a laundry expert. Just remove the cover, toss it in the washing machine and wash it as you would normally wash any cotton items.

The lightest silk quilt on the market

Our Summer silk quilt with a TENCEL cover is the lightest on the Australian market.

With only 150 GSM and an actual weight of less than 2 kg, it's a perfect solution to stay cool even during the hottest summer nights.

Customer service we are proud of

We are a small Australian-owned and operated family business. We don't have offshore call centres to answer phone calls and don't use chatbots to handle online enquiries.

We are personally here for you. Just get in touch if you have any questions or need any assistance.

Did we mention that we don't dropship? All our products are dispatched from our Melbourne warehouse.

How to insert your silk quilt into a cover

  1. Unzip the quilt cover, turn it inside out and place it on the bed.
  2. Put the summer silk quilt on top of the cover and tie the strings to the quilt loops (4 in the corners and 4 on the sides).
  3. Roll up the quilt together with the cover from top to bottom.
  4. Pull the corners through from the inside so the bottom of the quilt is now inside the cover and roll it back out.
  5. Zip it up and - VOILÀ - you're all set!

6 Irresistible Reasons to Buy a Silk Quilt

1. Supreme Comfort

Picture yourself sinking into a cloud of silky goodness. That's exactly how it feels to snuggle up under a silk quilt. The smoothness against your skin is pure bliss!

2. Year-Round Wonder

Don't you hate having to switch quilts with the changing seasons? Well, guess what? Silk quilts are perfect all year round! They're lightweight and breathable, keeping you cool in summer and cosy in winter.

3. Bye-Bye Allergies

If you suffer from allergies or have sensitive skin, a silk quilt is your new best friend. Hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites, mould and bacteria, it'll help you sleep peacefully without any sneezes or sniffles and keep your bed clean and hygienic.

4. Temperature Regulation

Unlike any other quilt, a silk quilt acts as your own thermostat, working WITH your body, not against it, keeping you warm in colder months and pleasantly cool in hot seasons to ensure a comfortable slumber all year round.

5. Elegance

Silk quilts ooze elegance. Their timeless beauty and high quality craftsmanship add a touch of sophistication to any bedroom.

6. Longevity

Despite the higher price tag than many lower-quality budget quilts, a silk quilt comes with one catch - with proper care, it will last for many years, longer than other quilts that may require more frequent replacement.

  • Silk Bed Linen is Naturally Hypoallergenic

    Naturally Hypoallergenic

    Silk quilt is an excellent option if you suffer from allergies or skin issues - it's very comforting and soothing on your skin.

  • Silk is Antibacterial & Anti-fungal

    Antibacterial & Antifungal

    Silk is a material that germs struggle to cling to or grow on, and is resistant to dust mites, mould and bacteria.

  • Temperature Regulating

    Silk keeps you comfortably cool in summer and warm in winter, making it possible to get a great night's rest all year round.

  • Lightweight & Breathable

    Silk is made from thin natural strands, allowing for better air circulation than cotton, wool, down and synthetic materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between a quilt, a doona and a duvet?

Technically, "quilt", "duvet", and "doona" are different terms that describe the same bedding item.

"Quilt" and "doona" are most commonly used in Australia, while "duvet" is a European term. In The United States, people often refer to "quilts" as "comforters".

2. Are silk quilts any good?

Yes, silk quilts are an excellent bedding choice due to their hypoallergenic properties, lightweight, and softness.

They also provide superior temperature regulation, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter.

3. What is the best silk for a quilt?

Mulberry silk is considered the best for a quilt due to its high quality and durability.

Produced by silkworms fed exclusively on mulberry leaves, Mulberry silk is known for its softness, strength, and natural sheen.

4. Are Mulberry silk quilts worth it?

Absolutely! Mulberry silk quilts are worth the investment due to their high quality, hypoallergenic properties, and temperature regulation.

They are also long-lasting and provide excellent comfort and softness.

5. Can you wash a silk quilt?

Yes, you can wash silk quilts.

For the quilts with TENCEL covers, we recommend using a gentle pH-neutral liquid detergent and cold water to prevent damage to the silk fibres. 

For the quilts with cotton covers: the cover should be removed and washed separately as standard cotton bed linen. We don't recommend washing the silk filling. Dry clean (no trichloroethylene!) it instead.

It is also essential to follow our silk bedding care instructions.

6. How often should you wash a silk doona?

We recommend washing a silk doona every 6-12 months, depending on the usage and other factors, such as humidity and dust.

7. Do you put a quilt cover on a silk quilt?

Yes, we recommend using a quilt cover on a silk quilt to protect it from dirt and dust and to provide an extra layer of warmth and comfort.

8. How long do silk doona last?

Silk doonas can last 10-15 years with proper care and maintenance. It is essential to follow our care instructions for cleaning and storage to extend the lifespan of your silk doona.

9. What is the best way to store a silk quilt?

The best way to store a silk quilt is to fold it neatly and keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.

10. Can the silk filling inside the quilt cover move about?

No, it can not.

The cover has 8 loops (4 in the corners and 4 in the middle of each side), and the silk filling has 8 strings tied with the cover's loops, so it's fixed firmly within the cover.
