Summer or All Season?
The choice between an All Season and a Summer silk quilt depends on your personal comfort preferences and the climate in your area.
Summer Silk Quilts
The lightest silk quilt in Australia, our Summer quilt will protect you from the heat all year round if you live in an area with high temperatures no matter the season and keep you cool during hot summer months elsewhere.
If you are a hot sleeper and the heat tends to keep you awake, these quilts are your best option.
All Season Silk Quilts
Our All Season quilts are thicker, slightly heavier and noticeably warmer than Summer quilts, making them suitable for both - cool and hot weather.
If you live in an area with weather significantly changing during the year or are a cold sleeper and prefer to snuggle in a warm, cosy bed, then our All Season quilt is the right choice.
TENCEL or Cotton?
Silk Quilts with a TENCEL Cover
TENCEL is well-known for its silky soft feel and moisture-wicking qualities. Though it absorbs more moisture than cotton, TENCEL is ten times more resistant to bacterial growth (because of its antibacterial properties), which makes our silk quilts with a TENCEL cover an ideal option for people with allergies or sensitive skin.
Compared to cotton, less water and chemicals are used in TENCEL production, making it more environmentally friendly.
Silk Quilts with a Cotton Cover
A cotton cover is soft and breathable, helping you feel pleasantly comfortable and soothed for the whole night.
Cotton absorbs less moisture than TENCEL, making these quilts a perfect choice for people with dry or normal skin.
The cotton cover has a hidden zipper closure and can be easily removed, machine-washed, and dried separately from the silk filling, making it easy to care for.
Whether TENCEL or cotton, we use 400 thread count fabric, which is noticeably thinner and smoother than the standard linen fabric and doesn’t produce this annoying rustling noise during sleep.
How to insert your silk quilt into a cover
- Unzip the quilt cover, turn it inside out and place it on the bed.
- 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).
- Roll up the quilt together with the cover from top to bottom.
- Pull the corners through from the inside so the bottom of the quilt is now inside the cover and roll it back out.
- Zip it up and - VOILÀ - you're all set!

There are cheaper silk quilts on the Australian market, but they are, most likely, filled with low-quality silk.
