BEDDING
Choosing the right duvet or pillow is essential for optimising comfort in bed and ensuring a good night’s sleep. In store, our specialist advisers will ask you about your sleeping habits to find the right duvet for you. Choosing a duvet is not easy! While it should keep the body warm, it should also be light and allow the body's perspiration (500ml per night) to escape. Ideally, it should be both warm and light. Goose down is considered the best product. It is lightweight, silent and odourless. But many alternatives are available. Here are some questions about your sleeping habits that will help you choose the right duvet for you. HOWTO CHOOSE YOUR DUVET
Which heat index should you choose? The risks associated with a duvet that is too warm: Being too hot causes many micro-awakenings. It is therefore essential to find the ideal duvet to maximise your comfort whilst you sleep. It is the weight, i.e. the quantity of feathers, that will determine the heat index of the duvet. The risks associated with a duvet that is not warm enough: Being too cold does not allow the body to relax and fall asleep. While some people are content with a light duvet all year round, others have to change their duvet with the passing seasons. If your home is not very warm in winter and is very hot in summer, for example, you should have two different duvets: one for summer and one for winter. Another option is to use two duvets that can be combined with press studs, which can be used for all four seasons, the cooler one for summer and the second one for mid-season. Combined, they offer the perfect warmth index during the winter. For those who maintain a constant temperature in their home, as is often the case in Switzerland, it is possible to make do with a single “ all-season ” duvet.
Do you prefer a light or heavy duvet? Here too, preferences vary: while some prefer to feel the weight of their duvet, others need lightness. More feathers will increase the heat index, but also the weight. If you are looking for maximum lightness, choose a cashmere duvet (warmer) or pure Tussah silk (cooler). Do you sweat a lot? A cashmere duvet is an excellent solution for those who do not want down or synthetic materials. Filled with 100% pure cashmere, which is very light, very soft and highly absorbent, it provides remarkable heat regulation properties. Just like our heat-regulating duvet with innovative technology, originally developed for NASA, which regulates the temperature and humidity balance proactively. Do you suffer from allergies? Our Tussah silk duvet is very light and soft and is a good alternative for allergy sufferers. We can also offer you other duvets with anti-allergic synthetic fibres.
