Contessa Hungarian White Goose Down 650
Construction:13" Baffle Box, Silk Braided Piping Double Stitch Edged 366 Thread Count German Cambric Cotton Twin: 71” X 86” Down: the insulating fluff found under the chest feathers of waterfowl. Soft, nearly weightless clusters radiate in all directions from a central point and interlock to trap air. It’s the air that keeps you warm. Types of down: generally, the colder the climate and the longer the goose is allowed to mature, the larger and warmer the down clusters. Fills: White Goose Down: 550 fill power Fill power: the standard that tells us the number of cubic inches filled by each ounce of down. The more space an ounce of down takes up (that is, the more air it entraps), the more warmth it offers per ounce. Tick: the fabric sack that contains the fill of a comforter or pillow. Ticking: the fabric the tick is made of. All Cloud Nine comforter and pillow ticks are made with down-proof natural fabrics of exceptional quality with a high thread count and luxurious hand. Egyptian cotton: long-staple cotton fibers with exceptional strength and luster. Since it requires very fine, smoothly-spun threads to achieve a high thread count, Egyptian cotton is ideal for weaving ticking fabrics that are exceptionally lightweight, lustrous, down-proof and long-wearing. Silk: a natural fiber known for its luster, strength and luxurious hand. We have blended silk with cotton for added comfort and elegance. Thread count: the total number of threads per square inch. This includes both warp and weft threads. The higher the thread count, the more closely woven the fabric and the more down-proof the fabric. Cloud Nine uses fabrics with thread counts as high as 1020. Weave: the pattern formed by the warp threads crossing the weft threads. Satin or sateen weave: a lustrous finish created by threads that float across the surface of the fabric. Twill weave: a diagonal surface texture (like denim). Generally thicker and heavier than a plain weave, twill makes an ideal tick for feather fills. Pillow is a very personal thing. That’s why we’ve created so many options. All our sleep pillows are available in five sizes and a variety of fills. And like our comforters, all our sleep pillows come in fine, high thread count ticking fabrics that allow the down to loft to its fullest potential. You’ll find our recommendations for fill weights on our price sheet, but we can fill them to any weight you like.
