About us
Mandarina Silk started selling silk filled duvets in 2002, which means that we were among the very first companies to sell these to the UK market, and the first to sell this type of duvet made to British Standard. Since then we have added a collection of luxuriously soft silk bed linen to our range, as well as an ingeniously simple but incredibly comfortable pillow topper to make your night's sleep completely comfortable and healthy. Our range is available by mail order.
Additional Information
SILK – ALCHEMY, MAGIC OR JUST COMMON SENSE?
In the early part of the last century there was a view that one's most important assets were a good bed and a good pair of shoes, as if you weren't in one you were in the other. Now, more than ever, quality of sleep is so vital, which is where silk filled duvets are gaining a deserved and increasing reputation. And they are no more expensive than a reasonable quality down filled duvet.
The main benefit of a silk filled duvet is that it enables your body to be at its natural temperature. As too warm is as uncomfortable as not warm enough a silk filled duvet is not so much about keeping you warm as keeping you at the proper temperature. For most individuals a properly chosen silk filled duvet will keep you warm enough in winter and will still be comfortable in the summer, keeping you comfortable through the seasons. Additional benefits are that silk filled duvets are naturally hypoallergenic and naturally resistant to dust mites, making them a perfect choice for allergy sufferers who had previously been using heavy, uncomfortable and environmentally unfriendly polyester filled duvets.
Also, because of the way that the duvets are made, with a silk floss, you get an even temperature under the duvet, thus avoiding the hot and cold spots that you get with even a good quality down duvet. The filling does not move with use, or deteriorate with age.
Mandarina's silk filled duvets are made with 100% new long fibre mulberry silk filling and a 100% cotton casing fabric, and come with a 10 year guarantee, although they are likely to last more than double that if they are properly cared for. Almost all of our sales are by mail order, but we are available to give personal advice if you are not sure which duvet will be most suited to your requirements.
Don't take our word for it – ask someone who has already bought a silk filled duvet whether they would return to sleeping under down. We know what the answer will be!
