A satin comforter, known for its slippery, shiny smoothness, is a sumptuous type of comforter that can add a touch of old-world elegance to your bed.  Satin comforters are soft and flexible unlike bulky down filled comforters.  Satin is not a fabric but a type of weave, historically made from silk.  Today there are various types and qualities of fabric sold as satin including a knit satin fabric.  Satin’s smoothness comes from the high thread count used, usually between 230 to 400 threads, which results in a small, tight weave of the fibers.  The luster of satin, giving it a shiny look, comes from the unique, natural glossy fibers of silk.  Synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, and acetate can be produced in both extremely fine and highly glossy strands reproducing the look of satin produced from silk.  Satin comforters are priced according to the material used to manufacture them – silk being the most costly and synthetic knit satin being the most economical.  Satin comforters can be very durable, lasting a lifetime if taken care of properly.
