Feathers and Down are two of nature’s most efficient means of insulation. Soft, yet practically indestructible, they "breathe” and absorb body moisture, keeping the body warm. Various blends of feathers and down give varying degrees of insulation and the particular qualities of down give extra lightness and resilience. Down is a three-dimensional spherical plume, lighter than a full feather and therefore having more “loft or fiufftness. The more down used in a product, the lighter it will be and the more insulation it will provide. “Quilties" Continental Quilt loners . . .
