Setino the best choice for a duvet
Setino is the double duvet , single duvet and King Duvet or Queen Duvet of the exclusive T.SILK COLLECTION line, designed and produced using only 100% natural silk fiber. Setino is the overcoming, even as a name and brand, of the concept of duvet, eiderdown or quilt. A padded double blanket that is characterized and stands out in 100% Silk: both as padding and as external fabric.
What is meant by duvet, eiderdown, quilt
Duvet, quilt and quilt are terms that derive from different histories and uses, and have taken on the same meaning over time, often resulting in them being interchangeable with each other.
Down jacket - a fabric bag, variously packaged and quilted, containing goose down
Piumone - commercial name, created by a famous bedding brand, to indicate a duvet and which over time has become a generally used word.
Quilt - the evolution of the old bed blanket with the application of padding which was quilted, with different designs and shapes
Duvet and quilt have gradually lost their real meaning, losing the reference with goose down padding and also becoming associated with clothing items.
How to choose the best double duvet for your bed
The function of a double duvet is to create the optimal conditions to guarantee a relaxing, quality and well-being rest, reducing to a minimum the possible causes of night-time awakenings:
- Comfort - Maintain heat and ensure breathability by wrapping the body lightly and softly
- Ergonomics - Promote correct body positions during sleep, without creating pressure points
- Health - Be composed of natural fibers that do not release harmful substances and be possibly healing for the skin and body
- Nature – Not polluting during production, not releasing harmful substances or elements during use and washing (plastic microfibres), reusable and recyclable, non-polluting at the end of its life
Setino, the duvet from the T.SILK COLLECTION line, is the best double duvet :
- It uses the innovative and patented T.Silk padding in 100% silk, capable of constant thermoregulation with unparalleled, tested, levels of comfort.

- The silk fiber used is completely natural, sustainable, non-polluting, free from plastic microfibers
- Silk fiber is made up of two natural proteins that are healing and highly compatible with skin, hair and body.
- Once left in the environment it decomposes easily, releasing only natural elements.
How to recognize a quality duvet
To recognize a quality duvet , a critical analysis of the product and its components is necessary, also on the basis of readily available information:
- The composition label with the definition of the fibres and their percentages present inside a single duvet , a double duvet, King Duvet or a queen ize duvet
- The price which represents, although not in a univocal way, an element of information based on the fibres involved
- A Made in Italy product that comes from a traceable supply chain, capable of providing greater certainty regarding its quality level and its ethics
- Tactile and aesthetic perception
- The history, credibility and tradition of the brand
- Word of mouth and/or reviews

How to choose a natural double duvet
A duvet can be defined as natural if it is made of 100% natural fibres, both for the padding and the external fabric.
Textile fibers are classified into natural fibers, artificial fibers, synthetic fibers:
- Natural fibres are of vegetal origin (linen, cotton, hemp, jute, agave, coconut) and animal origin (sheep's wool, camel, cashmere, mohair, vicuna, alpaca, silk)
- Artificial fibres are obtained, through chemical treatments, from cellulose or proteins (acetate, cupro, viscose or rayon, modal)
- Synthetic fibres are mainly derived from petroleum (acrylic, polyamide, polyester, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyurethane)
Which fibers and products are not natural
The entire range of viscose fibres cannot be considered natural fibres as, although they derive from raw materials such as cellulose or protein elements, they undergo extensive chemical transformation processes, so much so that no original element is found in the final fibre.
Those products, fabrics or paddings which are the result of a mixture of natural and non-natural fibres (mainly for paddings in Polyester, recycled polyester, PLA) are not to be considered natural.
What is the best Natural Duvet
Setino is made from a combination of an external fabric and an internal padding, both in 100% silk. A double duvet that guarantees respect for the environment, easily reusable and recyclable, non-polluting, capable of maintaining a circular agricultural system capable of reducing the presence of CO2 in the atmosphere (750 kg of CO2 for each kg of silk produced). Setino's made to order minimizes production waste that is completely reused. The natural color is a value of the product and does not present the presence of foreign substances.
How to choose the best hypoallergenic double duvet
To choose the best hypoallergenic double duvet it is essential to know the allergies that a textile product can cause from:
- dust
- mites
- mold fungi and bacteria
- Contact dermatitis from rubbing
- Chemical contact dermatitis
The current reality speaks of a marked increase in all allergy phenomena caused by textile products mainly due to synthetic fibers due to the release of harmful chemical substances, present in the fibers and dyes, as well as their inability to prevent the accumulation of humidity that makes them easily attacked by mold, bacteria, fungi and mites.
Allergies to products containing feathers or other natural fibres such as wool and cotton are also on the rise.
What is the best hypoallergenic duvet?
Setino is the naturally hypoallergenic double bed duvet , designed and created to guarantee maximum health and well-being. Setino silk:
- avoids any moisture deposit inside it
- It is not naturally attacked by moss, mould and bacteria
- It does not release harmful chemicals but only skin healing substances
- it is not dyed but left in its natural color
- It is made of a completely smooth thread that does not cause micro-blemishes on the skin
- It is not colonized by mites or small insects
- being a natural microfibre it creates a barrier to dust deposits
Which is the warmest duvet?
Choosing a double duvet only for the level of warmth it can nominally guarantee is a serious mistake.
The real value of a padded double duvet is not only given by the heat it is able to retain, but also by the ability to modulate and balance the level of heat present between the duvet, body and mattress based on the physiological reactions of the body, external temperatures and conditions and metabolism.
The best duvet is the one that manages to achieve the best compromise between heat retention and breathability.
The innovative 100% Silk T.Silk padding of the Setino natural fiber duvet reaches a level of thermo-physiological comfort index of absolute excellence, clearly superior to that guaranteed by feather, synthetic or other natural fiber padding. The thermo-physiological comfort index is the one capable of representing in the most complete way the relationship between heat and breathability.
Setino is the warmest duvet , in the sense that it represents the double duvet capable of providing only the heat that is needed, releasing the superfluous heat outside, preserving only what is essential for a deep and healthy sleep.
Non-feather duvet
Bed duvet and bed quilt were created to indicate products with goose down padding.
Feather is a product of animal origin (goose or duck) that can optimize and create heat especially when it is inserted into a complete living system (various layers of plumage, skin, subcutaneous fat). Removed from the context of the animal from which it is obtained, it highlights some critical issues:
- modest transpiration and heat retention
- poor traceability
- unstable quality, significant variations and typologies
- ethical issues related to animal treatment
- cause of allergies
- subject to highly invasive sanitization processes with chemical substances
Silk padding is a very valid alternative to goose down and allows for a series of significantly superior improvements:
- maximum breathability and heat retention
- good traceability
- homogeneous and stable quality
- natural hypoallergenic
- made up of proteins that are highly compatible with the epidermis
The Setino double duvet is more than an alternative to the goose down one, it represents a clear improvement not only in name but above all in comfort, well-being and health.
Why do you sweat under the duvet?
Usually, during sleep, the body produces water vapor (just breathing produces an estimated 400/600 grams of water vapor during the night). This is an important nocturnal physiological activity to disperse toxins accumulated during the day. The amount of sweating is susceptible to increase due to physiological factors (digestion, excessive tiredness) or psychological factors (anxiety, tension, worries).
In many cases, the elements that make up a double duvet are not only unable to absorb this excess heat, but they themselves create conditions that cause an increase in perceived heat.
The effect is a vicious circle of heat, excessive sweating, increased temperature, waking up with the duvet thrown out of bed, feeling cold.
The paddings, mainly synthetic (poor quality and low price) but also natural ones with synthetic elements, thermosetting or volumizing resins inside, are the main responsible for excessive night sweating with side effects of creating humid areas, proliferation of bacteria and mold and bad odors.
What is the best duvet that doesn't make you sweat?
Setino is the duvet that doesn't make you sweat, that interrupts the vicious cycle of sweating. The thermoregulating silk fiber inside its padding and in the external fabric allows in a simple and natural way to interrupt that chain of events that cause excessive heat and sweating.
Silk fiber captures excess water vapor and quickly releases it to the outside, keeping only what is needed available.
