Perhaps the secret of silk is the safest guarded one in history.
Silk was first discovered in China more than 4500 years ago. Initially, silk was a royal luxury and hence reserved exclusively for the ruler. Only the Emperor, his close relations and his dignitaries of the highest rank were authorized for the use of silk. For more than 2000 years the Chinese tightly guarded the secrets of this most exquisite of fabrics but eventually knowledge did spread.
Today, pure silk bedding remains a most splendid luxury and although produced across both Asia and Europe, that from China is arguably still the finest. 100% pure silk adapts to changes in temperature and contains no harmful trace chemicals. The large fibres reduce heat loss from the body in winter, but in the summer they shed surplus heat, keeping you cool and comfortable.
100% pure silk is naturally hypoallergenic thus excellent for people with sensitive skin and allergy problems. Moreover, pure silk contains natural cellular albumen fibre, a component that contributes to skin health by speeding metabolism of skin cells, so it could even slow the aging process of your skin.
Many retailers offer silk bedding in varying qualities, often as silk mixes with synthetic filling at unaffordable prices. The bedding I have available is hand quilted with a 100% pure silk face, a 100% silk lining and with a cotton punched filling.
