Bed linen with a history
The art of producing silk was invented in China 5,000 years ago, and the Chinese are still leaders when it comes to raw silk and processed silk products, such as high-quality silk bedding. The silkworm larvae that spin the fine silk threads feed on freshly chopped mulberry leaves—hence the name mulberry silk. After 30 days, the larva is fully grown and begins spinning the cocoon, which consists of a 3,000–4,000 m silk thread. Only the very best quality—around 800 m—is used for weaving silk bedding. The production process takes place without any use of chemicals.

The best quality
Silk bedding from Butterfly Silk of Copenhagen is made from the finest mulberry silk with a momme weight of 19. The bedding is satin-woven and, of course, OEKO-TEX 100 certified.

What is momme?
Momme is a method where the weight of the silk is used to determine how good the silk is. Momme indicates the silk’s quality and durability. Butterfly Silk of Copenhagen is made exclusively in Momme 19. A Class A mulberry silk—also known as Mulberry silk—the silk equivalent of Egyptian cotton.
