Continental Comforter by Yves Delorme

Yves Delorme uses top grade white European goose down to provide loft for insulation and lightness for freedom and comfort.  Encased in the finest quality batiste, these comforters combine modern technology and beautiful craftsmanship.  Heavier weights (Continental) have baffle box construction that keeps the down in place and allows for maximum loft; lighter comforters (Caribbean Light, Mediterranean Light & All Season) have box stitching, the preferred design for summer and ultra-light products.

Yves Delorme uses hand-selected mature white European goose down from free-range geese. The down is gathered during the molting season when it has reached its full size and potential to hold air. The loose down is not plucked, but rather collected as the geese are molting.

*Fill power is a measure of the loft or "fluffiness" of a down product that is loosely related to the insulating value of the down. Technically speaking fill power is a measurement of the amount of space that one (1) ounce of down will occupy in cubic inches when allowed to reach its maximum loft.

*Our sleeping pillows and duvets/comforters are not eligible for exchange or refund unless there is a manufacturer defect or error.

CARE OF DOWN PRODUCTS

Duvets, pillows and featherbeds should be fluffed daily to maintain the loft and fullness of the down. If stained, duvets and pillows can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. If featherbeds or silk duvets become soiled, dry clean only. For complete cleaning of down duvets and pillows, it is recommended to launder rather than dry clean. Laundering rejuvenates the lofting quality of down, making duvets and pillows full, fluffier, and fresh smelling. You may wash down items in a front-loading, extra capacity washer using a mild detergent in warm water.

Do not use top loading washing machines or the agitation may damage the delicate cotton cover.  You may tumble dry in a dryer set on medium heat. Be certain your down duvets and pillows are thoroughly dry before returning to the bed or storage. Always store in cotton bags, never in plastic.  Use pillow protectors on down pillows, and wash the protectors regularly. A mattress protector over a featherbed is strongly recommended.
