Bedding with history

The art of making silk was invented in China 5,000 years ago, and the Chinese are still leaders when it comes to raw silk and processed silk products, such as high-quality silk bedding. The silkworms caterpillars, which spin the fine silk threads, feed on freshly chopped mulberry leaves. This is where the name mulberry silk comes from. After 30 days, the caterpillar has grown and the work of spinning the cocoon, which consists of a silk thread of 3-4000 meters, begins. Only the best quality, approximately 800 meters, is used to weave silk bedding. The manufacturing process takes place without the use of any chemicals.
