Why Silk Batting Is the Ultimate Choice for Pure, Restful Sleep

For more than 25 years, Godding & Godding has been crafting some of South Africa’s most luxurious bedding—pieces designed not only to elevate your bedroom, but to transform the way you sleep. Among our most requested items are our silk duvet inners, loved for their gentleness, breathability, and timeless quality. Wrapped in pure cotton casings and filled with hand-layered mulberry silk batting, each duvet inner is a testament to craftsmanship and uncompromising standards.

If you’ve been searching for true luxury—the kind that lasts a decade or more, feels heavenly against the body, and creates a naturally balanced sleep environment—then a Godding & Godding silk duvet inner belongs on your bed.

Why Silk? The Secret to Exceptional Sleep

Silk has been celebrated for centuries as one of the world’s finest natural fibres. But its beauty is not only visual—it is also deeply functional. Our duvet inners use 10% pure mulberry silk, hand-layered into a smooth, breathable batting that delivers benefits you can feel from the very first night.

Naturally Hypoallergenic

Silk fibres are inhospitable to dust mites, mould, and bacteria, making them ideal for sensitive sleepers, allergy sufferers, and babies. Even customers who previously reacted to down or synthetic bedding often find relief with silk.

Temperature Regulating – Warm in Winter, Cool in Summer

Silk is nature’s most elegant insulator. It keeps warmth close to the body during colder nights, while releasing excess heat in summer. This breathability makes our king silk duvet, queen silk duvet, and single silk duvet inners perfect for year-round comfort.

Lightweight Comfort With Zero Bulk

Unlike down or feathers that can clump or shift, silk batting remains evenly distributed. The result is a duvet that feels cloud-light, lies beautifully flat, and offers a consistent warmth without heaviness.

No Rustling, No Sweat, No Allergic Reactions

Many customers love how silent silk is. No crinkling sounds or puffy bulk. Combined with its ability to wick away moisture, it creates a sleep environment that stays fresh, dry, and soothing all night long.

Hand-Layered Craftsmanship You Can Feel

While many duvet inners rely on machine-blown fill, Godding & Godding takes a more meticulous approach. Each duvet inner is crafted using hand-layered mulberry silk, a labour-intensive method that ensures consistency, breathability, and luxurious loft.

The process allows us to

  • Maintain exceptional quality control
  • Preserve the long, strong silk fibres
  • Prevent shifting or clumping over time
  • Build a duvet that genuinely lasts
  • This is not mass production—it is artistry.
  • Pure Cotton Casing: The Perfect Partner for Silk

Every Godding & Godding duvet inner is encased in breathable, natural 100% cotton, allowing the silk batting to perform at its best. Cotton supports airflow, enhances softness, and keeps the duvet feeling crisp, fresh, and comfortable throughout its lifespan.

Size Options for Every Bed And Every Sleeper

Our luxury silk duvet inners are available in:

  • Single
  • Queen
  • King
  • King Extra Length

Each one delivers the same level of handcrafted excellence. Whether you’re upgrading your master suite or creating a nurturing sleep environment for a baby, there is a Godding & Godding duvet inner for every size and stage of life.

Silk cot pillowcase offers parents a hypoallergenic, breathable, and safe bedding option for little ones, lightweight, natural, and gentle on delicate skin.

Durability That Justifies the Investment

Silk fibres are remarkably strong, which is why our duvet inners last 20+ years with proper care.

In addition, we offer a free refluffing service to ensure your duvet remains as luxurious as the day you first brought it home.

Quality is not just what we sell—it’s a promise we stand behind.

Care Instructions:

Your duvet is dry-clean only, ensuring its delicate fibres remain pristine for years to come. Bearing in mind that silk fibres are proteins that naturally do not attract dust or mites, your silk duvet inner will keep itslf free from dust and mites.

Complete the Luxury Sleep Experience: Silk Pillowcases

No experience sleeping under silk bedding is complete without the transformative comfort of sleeping on silk pillowcases. They complement your duvet perfectly and elevate your entire sleep ritual.

Silk pillowcases are known to:

  • Reduce friction on skin and hair
  • Minimise nighttime creasing
  • Support healthier hair (less breakage and frizz)
  • Maintain moisture balance on the face
  • Offer a cooling, serene surface for rest

If your duvet is the heart of your bedding, your silk pillowcase is the crown. Subtle, elegant, and deeply indulgent.

Two Silk Bonnet Styles: Standard or Adjustable

We have also expanded our range of silk hair bonnets with two different designs: the Standard Silk Hair Bonnet with elastic and the Adjustable Silk Hair Bonnet with tie.

Once again, the important distinction is the design rather than the silk. Both are made from premium 22 Momme Mulberry Silk, giving your hair the same smooth, low-friction surface while you sleep.

The Standard Silk Hair Bonnet

The standard bonnet is designed for simplicity.

It features an elastic opening that allows the bonnet to be put on quickly and comfortably before bed. Once positioned, the elastic helps keep the bonnet in place while you sleep.

This is an excellent choice if you want a straightforward nighttime hair-care routine without having to adjust or tie the bonnet.

It is particularly convenient for everyday use. Simply gather your hair, place the bonnet over it and you’re ready for bed.

The smooth Charmeuse silk helps reduce the friction that can occur when hair rubs against bedding during the night. This can help minimise frizz, tangling and breakage while helping hair retain more of its natural moisture.

For someone who wants simple, effective and effortless, the standard elastic bonnet is difficult to beat.

The Adjustable Silk Hair Bonnet with Tie

The adjustable bonnet takes a slightly more personalised approach.

Instead of relying solely on an elastic opening, the bonnet incorporates a tie that allows you to adjust the fit according to your preference.

This makes it particularly useful for people who want more control over how securely their bonnet sits. You can loosen the tie for a more relaxed fit or adjust it to help keep the bonnet securely positioned during the night.

It is also an attractive option for people with different hair volumes or hairstyles who prefer the flexibility of being able to alter the fit.

The adjustable design doesn’t mean compromising on the silk. Like the standard bonnet, it uses 22 Momme 100% Mulberry Silk, with the same luxurious Charmeuse surface.

Which Silk Bonnet Should You Choose?

Again, there is no right or wrong choice. It depends on how you prefer to wear your bonnet.

Choose the Standard Silk Bonnet if you want:

  • Quick and easy application
  • A simple elastic fit
  • An uncomplicated bedtime routine
  • A traditional bonnet design
  • Easy everyday use

Choose the Adjustable Silk Bonnet if you want:

  • Greater control over the fit
  • An adjustable tie
  • The ability to loosen or tighten the bonnet
  • A more personalised fit
  • Flexibility for different hair volumes and hairstyles

Both designs provide your hair with the key advantage of sleeping against premium Mulberry Silk rather than a rougher, more absorbent fabric.

 

Why 22 Momme Matters

Whichever design you choose, the quality of the silk should be the first consideration.

Momme is a measurement of silk fabric density. While 19 Momme silk can be perfectly good quality, 22 Momme provides a denser and more substantial fabric. It offers a combination of luxurious weight, durability, lustre and longevity that makes it particularly suitable for products used every night.

This is why SILK SA doesn’t offer multiple silk grades simply to create different price points.

Our philosophy is simple: uncompromising quality.

Our pillowcases and bonnets are made from 100% Mulberry Silk, 22 Momme, 6A Grade, with a Charmeuse weave. The result is a smooth, naturally lustrous fabric that feels luxurious against your skin and hair.

The Choice Is Yours

The introduction of the hidden zipper pillowcase and adjustable bonnet gives you more choice without changing what matters most: the quality of the silk.

For pillowcases, choose between the classic simplicity of the envelope closure or the secure, structured finish of the hidden zipper.

For bonnets, choose the easy, uncomplicated fit of the standard elastic bonnet or the personalised fit of the adjustable tie bonnet.

Whichever combination you choose, you’re getting the same SILK SA commitment to premium materials and craftsmanship.

100% Mulberry Silk. 22 Momme. Premium quality. No compromises.

That’s SILK SA: Uncompromising Quality.
