Choosing the right fill weight
As standard, we offer our silk duvets with three fill weights, which primarily depend on the temperature in the bedroom:

However, personal warmth needs are also important for choosing the right silk duvet, as these vary from person to person. While some people, mostly women, often have cold feet, get cold easily, and therefore prefer a heated bedroom, others tend to sweat and like to sleep with the window open.
People with a strong need for warmth
If you have a strong need for warmth, get cold easily, or often have cold feet, you have two options for choosing a duvet.
- Orignee All-Season Duvet
- Orignee All-Season and Summer Duvet combined
You can use the all-season duvet for most of the year. On the hottest summer nights, you sleep under the summer duvet, and in winter, you can connect the two duvets with the connecting hook. This way, you are guaranteed to stay warm.
Of course, you can also use the combined duvet all year round. With good thermal regulation, the duvet remains breathable despite the thick filling.
People with a low need for warmth
Some people with less need for warmth sweat easily and are always too warm.
In this case, we recommend a light summer duvet for most seasons. A summer duvet is often sufficient for children or teenagers as well.
The correct size
Standard sizes in Germany are: 135 x 200 cm, 155 x 220 cm, 220 x 200 cm, 240 x 220 cm.
While 135 x 200 cm is common as a single duvet, the oversized 155 x 220 cm is very cozy and suitable for people who are over 180 cm tall.
For couples who are both not taller than 180cm, the size 220 x 200 cm is suitable. If you want a bit more room under the duvet, the size 240 x 220 cm would be recommended.
