You understand, the down duvet is the best for restful sleep. But how to choose between duck and goose down duvet ? We are here to resolve this dilemma.
Thermal insulation
Goose feathers are larger and more durable, making goose down duvets THE choice for staying warm when you sleep. Cozy nights guaranteed for years. But don't underestimate duck down.

Comfort

Durability
Both goose down and duck down offer excellent durability. These materials maintain their loft over time, guaranteeing years of sleeping comfort. But to optimize the durability of a down duvet, it must be properly maintained. To do this, start by using a suitable duvet cover to protect your duvet. Every morning, shake it to redistribute the filling and restore the loft of the down. When changing sheets, vent the duvet out of the cover and brush it to remove dust. If necessary, machine wash it with a spacious drum, at 40°C max, and spin gently. Use natural detergents and tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls. With these little tips, your down duvet will accompany your nights for a very long time.
