We recommend hand washing silk bedding, even those garments labeled safe for machine washing. If, however, you do wish to machine wash silk, please use Delicate Cycle and mild detergent. Do not use detergents that contain enzymes and brighteners, but use the shortest spin cycle. In a top-loading machine, we strongly recommend using a mesh bag for extra protection (this step would not be necessary in a front-loading machine). Always separate your colors.

Hand washing silk bed sets is our recommended mode of cleaning silk. Almost all silk can be hand washed (and would not shrink if the silk fabric were pre-shrunk before sewing). If you have hard water, you may wish to first add a spoonful of borax to the washing water. Use lukewarm water and mild, non-alkaline soap (such as Ivory Liquid) or baby shampoo. While rinsing, you can add a few tablespoonfuls of distilled white vinegar to the rinse water to neutralize alkali traces and to dissolve soap residue. Or, add a few drops of hair conditioner to the final rinse water for extra silky feel. Soaking silk for any more than a few minutes should be avoided. Do not use harsh detergents that contain bleaches or brighteners. Do not wring or twist; roll in towel to extract water.

When shopping for lustrous sheets, silk, satin and sateen often get confused. However, both satin and sateen are artificial and not as durable as silk. Silk has a shimmering appearance on both sides of the sheet, while satin and sateen are often shiny on one side and matte on the back. Sateen is commonly combined with cotton, while satin sheets can be woven from several materials, like silk, nylon and polyester.

Decide on a type. When purchasing silk bedding set, there are typically two types of silk — mulberry silk and wild silk. Mulberry silk is produced using silkworms fed a special diet of mulberry leaves. This special treatment helps produce the softest and most luxurious silk in the market. Made from a variety of silkworm types, wild silk is still very soft but more affordable. If you’re looking for a bargain sheet set that is still 100 percent silk, look for silk sheet sets that mix both silk types. Whichever type of silk you choose, you’ll rest easy thanks to the fabric’s breathable nature.

Taking care of silk comforters may seem scary but you’ll find it easy once you follow these simple guidelines below.

Always use a mild soap and cool/lukewarm water when washing silk duvet covers. Never, ever use bleach. Wash silk in a washing machine only if it has a safe-for-silk cycle labeled gentle or delicate. If it doesn’t, wash by hand or take it to a dry cleaner. Dry silk in a dryer only if it has an air-only setting. Not all of them do, and it takes only a few minutes to reach a high enough temperature to damage fine silk. Whenever drying a silk garment on a drying rack, check for dyes and finishes that could cause stains. Avoid drying silk in direct sunlight, because this can damage the fiber and cause the color to fade.

Taking a few simple steps like the aforementioned tips to look after your luxury bedding comforter will prolong its life and maintain its luxurious look and feel.

Silk comforter set keeps warm in winter, and cool in summer, and your health benefits a lot from it. To maintain it well, besides a removable duvet cover, sun curing is necessary!

“Sun curing” is the traditional way to care for a silk comforter. You should air out your silk comforter using this technique periodically, whenever it becomes heavy or starts to lose heat retention. To do so, place the comforter in the sun (with the cover on for protection) for an hour or two at the most. Because silk has the ability to absorb moisture, this process will dry it out, making it fluffier and lighter, and improving its insulating properties. Alternatively, you may place the comforter in the dryer on extra low heat for a short time, not to exceed 30 minutes.

Silk is an amazing fiber in that it is remarkably strong, and yet very fragile, so much care should be taken to keep your luxury bedding comforter in premium condition.

Attracted by its numerous advantages, it is possible that you’ll purchase a silk comforter once you get enough money. However, before you move on, learn how to care for it!

Removable duvet covers should be used to keep your silk comforter clean and protected. Most importantly, a silk duvet cover will preserve your comforter so that frequent cleanings are unnecessary. When properly covered, silk comforters should almost never require cleaning. As for how to care silk duvet covers, please read our previous articles for guidance.

As luxury bedding comforters, silk comforters should last at least 5 to 10 years, and possibly much longer, so please take good care of it!
