This natural comforter is especially highly valued on hot summer nights. The blend of linen and Tencel makes it cool and much more moisture-regulating than cotton summer comforters. Consider linen clothing, this features high air permeability and has unique thermal conductivity properties. The ticking is made of wonderfully light lyocell satin that has exceptionally good moisture management. The surface is very smooth, making this ticking mite resistant. The comforter is easily washable, environmentally friendly and 100% biodegradable. The production of linen requires many times less water than other textile fibers.
