These handcrafted, high quality silk patchwork quilts are made by the people in northern Thailand.
Each quilt is made of 100 percent silk on both sides, the top and back, with pieces of black silk or other silk patchworks as the back.
For a care recommendation for this silk patchwork quilt, dry-cleaning is preferable to keep this quilt in good condition and maintain its original beauty and texture. If it is hand-washed, it's better to use the mildest soap. Rinse the silk item thoroughly in tepid water; never wring it. Add a spoon of clear, white vinegar in the last rinse to retain its original luster. Drip dry in the shade, preferably where there's a mild breeze and do not leave crumpled or creased while wet; make sure that it is well supported.
A washing machine can also be used but the quilt should be kept inside a cloth bag while washing. |
