The St. Geneve Eiderdown duvet, in Cotton or Silk, unmatched in quality, functional
performance and pure luxury.
Fabric
The St. Geneve Cotton Eiderdown Duvet is made with a 360 Threadcount
100% long staple Egyptian Cotton, woven in Germany especially for Eiderdown.
At 2.2 ounces per square yard, this is the lightest and softest downproof
fabric in the world. Piped in white satin cording and hand sewn with a special "sealed
baffled box" construction.
The Silk Eiderdown Duvet is made with a 450 Threadcount 100% silk, also
woven in Germany especially for Eiderdown. This silk weighs 3.2 ounces per
square yard, with a luxurious drape and softness unequaled by any other downproof
silk, or any other fabric for that matter. Piped in satin cording and hand
sewn with a special "sealed baffled box" construction.
These exquisite downproof fabrics carry the Confidence
in Textiles certification, your assurance of safe and healthy textiles.
Good for you, good for our environment.
Eider Down
Eiderdown is the softest and lightest down in the world. It is extremely rare, in
great demand and highly prized (accounting for it's high price). This eiderdown
is certified at 99.9% purity and is never blended with any other type of
down.
Our eiderdown is gathered by hand from the nests of the Eider Duck in special
sanctuaries that are maintained by farmers in Iceland. This special relationship
between farmers and the eider duck insures that the birds are never harmed;
the down is only collected after they are finished nesting and have continued
on their annual migration. The sanctuaries that the farmers provide also
insures that these birds are safe from poaching - a real concern given the
value of eiderdown today.
The finest eiderdown tests at approximately 700 fill power. Yet, due to
the very tiny "hooks" in the eiderdown cluster it has a phenomenal
density and cling and insulates at an amazing 850 to 900 fill power. If you
were to hold a small amount of eiderdown in the palm of your hand you would
feel no weight, just a soft growing warmth. Really quite an amazing sensation.
Eiderdown has a very wide "comfort range", far superior to any
other down, keeping you cooler when the tempurature is warm and warmer when
the tempurature is cold.
Warmth Levels
- Ultra Light: For the warmest climates and sleepers or for use as a Summer
comforter.
- Light: Fuller and warmer than the Ultra Light. Perfect for "average" sleepers
in warmer climates.
- Regular: For the average sleeper and year around use, in unheated or
cooler bedrooms.
Construction
Made in Canada by St. Geneve, the Eiderdown Duvets are hand sewn, using a special sealed baffled box
construction, guaranteed to keep the down from shifting for the life of the
comforter. The quality of materials and craftsmanship is impeccable, resulting
in a true heirloom quality duvet suitable to be passed down from generation
to generation.
Eiderdown Duvets usually ship within 3-4 weeks.
Care
It's easy! Fluff daily, and keep in a duvet cover.
Your eiderdown duvet should only be washed (or Dry Cleaned if you prefer) if and/or when necessary
(excessive washing is hard on the down clusters and strips the down of its
natural oils). We recommend that the Silk Eiderdown Duvet be professionally
laundered or Dry Cleaned.
The bags our eiderdown duvets and pillows come in are meant to be used
and are perfect for storing your items in!
Guarantee
The eiderdown duvets are guaranteed against defects in materials or workmanship for 20 years.
They are not returnable, except for defects in materials or workmanship.
