What's New?
While supplies last, get a soft bamboo throw when you
purchase our ivory silk
comforter/duvet with the deluxe silk cover — and the sets are even on
sale!
Our silk-filled comforters have now
been upgraded from a cotton shell to habotai silk. And the type of silk in our
duvet cover
has just been upgraded from 16 to 19 mommes, so the quality is much higher!
 This luxurious
bamboo throw is a $119 value and comes in your choice of 3 color combinations.
Or you can buy one here (they're on sale
for $65!).
Please specify your color choice of brown-green, lavender-gray, or beige-gray
when you place your order for a
comforter/cover combo.
Also, we've still got a few left in stock of our sumptuous king-size Tussah silk blankets
for only $199. Our regular price is $260. What's the catch? You have to
choose the camel color — but it's a gorgeous, rich color and neutral enough to
go with any color scheme!

Why it's smart to buy your silk from
SimoSilk:
You have many choices when it comes to
where you buy your silk bedding, and it's
SimoSilk's mission to help you make an
informed decision.
After all, silk is a premium product
with many price points and varying levels
of quality. You don't want those nagging
doubts of whether you received a fair price
after such a major bedding purchase.
Here is the first thing you must know before you
make the decision to buy any silk product:
1.
What does momme mean?
North Americans are accustomed to
judging luxury bedding by threadcount.
The problem is, threadcount isn't used to measure
quality of cultivated silk. It is much too
finely woven to be able to count the
threads. That's why the Asian method of mommes,
which calculates weight,
is used to measure quality. The higher the number of mommes,
the heavier the silk. The heavier that
cultivated silk is,
the higher the quality will be.
Unfortunately, some silk websites make a
handsome profit by neglecting to mention
the weight of their products in mommes.
Whenever mommes are not mentioned or
found only in the fine print, expect the
silk to be of the lowest quality, like
habotai.
Therefore, before a purchase, ask:
2. What is the type
of silk?
Those in the know take momme weight AND type of silk
into consideration before attempting to compare prices.
The highest quality is charmeuse. (Habotai
silk is fine, as long as you're not paying
charmeuse silk prices for it!)
Vote with your
wallet for fair silk prices!
As a responsible direct importer, SimoSilk seeks to educate consumers
on such things as the importance of mommes
vs. threadcount so you can make an
informed choice when buying silk
bedding. Read our

Bedding
for some facts to get you started.
Shop and compare — arm yourself with
knowledge — and when you're ready to buy silk
bedding, you'll know where to find the best
quality silks at great prices: SimoSilk.com!
