Silk
has been known as a textile fibre for about 4,000 years. Its qualities are unrivalled by any other fibre - it is light but strong, smooth, soft and versatile. And
as a natural fibre that "breathes", silk is comfortable to the skin. Superb fine silk quilts are immune to all attacks of fungi and will not deteriorate with the
age. Most importantly, they contain no traces of harmful chemicals and do not require washing after
every use. They can regain their original softness and beauty by
simply drying in the sunlight.
Silk has the characteristics to adapt to changes in temperature. It can be warmer in the winter or cold season and cooler in the summer or hot season. Silk has strong fibre structure,
high elasticity and good tenacity. All pure silk quilts are healthy, light-weight, soft and thermal insulating. Moreover, a pure silk quilt has the characteristics of air-permeability,
no static electricity and can be effectively clean the environment in the room.
According to scientific research and medical findings,
natural silk inherits with 18 kinds of amino acids and natural cellular albumen fibre, which
are essential for the health, protecting
against pains in joints, insomnia and asthma. Frequent and long usage of silk quilts can speed up the metabolism of cells and avoid the aging of the human skin.
Zuhrah Silk Quilts are synonymous with luxury beauty and elegance and are the best choice for you and your family's health and comfort. They make ideal gifts to friends and loved ones.

Why Choose Silk Quilt ?

Round
• Silk breathes better than down, wicking
moisture away from your body. Its unique
thermal properties allow it to adjust to
your body temperature, adding a perfect
layer of warmth in all seasons.
• Silk comforters drape better than down,
contouring to your body, leaving no cold
spots. Down runs from you, but silk comes to
you.
• Zuhrah silk-filled comforters give you the
warmth of down at a fraction of the price
and half the weight!
100% Natural, Allergy Free
• Silk is 100% natural and hypoallergenic,
making it a perfect alternative to down or
wool.
• Silk fibers don¡¯t break down the way
feathers do; as down degrades, allergies
often become worse.

the delicate, fluffy layers ¡°adhere¡± to one
another, never wandering or bunching. This
means our comforters require little or no
quilt stitching, giving them a billowy
softness, a hallmark of every Zuhrah
product.
For the Rest of Your Life

expectancy than down comforters.
• With proper care and our exclusive
comforter covers, a silk comforter can
provide a lifetime of use.
