After using for a period of time, the silk will show a slight yellowing, and the bulkiness will naturally decrease. This is a normal phenomenon and will not have a great impact on the quality of the silk.

2. When the silk quilt is used, it should be covered with a quilt, otherwise the quilt is easily contaminated by dust and stains and cannot be cleaned. Do not press the quilt underneath when you sleep to keep the silk quilt fluffy. When children use silk bedding, they should prevent bedwetting and try not to let children run and jump on the mattress.

The silk quilt cannot be dry cleaned, cleaned with water, or ironed. If there are stains, you can use a neutral detergent, wipe the local area, and then dry it. If the contaminated area is large, it is recommended to take it to a professional dry cleaner and wash it with a special medicine.

4. The new silk quilt will smell like silkworms. Just blow it in a well-ventilated place for two days. Note that the silk quilt cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time. Fortunately, take it out to dry for about two hours every half a month. This is to prevent the quilt from getting damp or moldy. After each drying, you can gently pat the quilt with your hands, which can effectively maintain the fluffy feeling.
