Ever since our beginnings in the Polish countryside 200 years ago, weve dealt exclusively with knowledgable farmers in the finest down and feather-producing areas of the world to obtain the finest, warmest down and feathers available. Weve maintained relationships with the descendants of those original farmers so that we can continue to offer our customers only the best natural products. | |

Down is the soft fluffy undercoating that traps the bodys naturally warmth. The down grows next to the body of the goose or duck underneath the protective layer of feathers. Each down cluster is made up of thousands of soft fibers radiating in all directions from a central point. The down cluster is three dimensional and does not contain a quill shaft. Because of this structure down clusters can loft without matting together. Lofting or filling up space is what creates trapped air and keeps us warm. Synthetic fibers are homogeneous and often mold together and clump. | |

Feathers provide a protective layer over the down. Feathers are structurally different and therefore functionally different than down. Feathers are two dimensional and have a shaft. While the structure of down provides for greater lofting and insulating value, the structure of feathers provide for a greater support. Feathers still have the soft natural fluffy feeling while having a spring-like quality to provide resilience and support. Feathers are ideal for cushions in upholstery, featherbeds, and for those who prefer firmer pillows.
