How to judge the quality of silk quilt

by Administrator | 32 comments

Hand-made silk quilt is made up of 100% long mulberry silk. It is the top grade product in silk quilt market. Machine-made silk quilt are usually made with silk that are treated by chemicals, crushed by machines, with rayon and broken silk all mixed up together.
   
Smell: inferior silk gives off a slight smell of chemicals and silkworm pupa, which will become stronger in more humid and warmer enviornment during use. This smell is definately harmful to your health, especially to those who have allergic constitution.

Color: 100% natural silk floss has a soft and lustrous pearly color; in contrast, as a result of bleaching, inferior floss looks artificially white and shiny.

Hand feel: pure silk floss feels more delicate yet less smoother than lower-grade ones which have been treated by machines.

Length of silk filament: The most exquisite silk quilt is made of long and unbroken mulberry silk which is stretched and handlayered one by one in a criss-cross pattern. It is very smooth and even throughout the silk quilt; in contrast, silk in machine-made silk quilt is usually broken. Shake the silk quilt quickly, if it is made by machine, tiny dust-like fibres can be seen falling down from the silk quilt. These fluff may enter the respiration systems and further do harm to people's health, especially to babies and children.
