Our low-loft Alpaca & Bamboo Quilt / Doona Inner combines two natural fibres that complement each other for an ideal sleeping environment.
The unique blend of 40% Alpaca fleece and 60% Bamboo fibre provides superior temperature-regulating properties, unparalleled softness, high absorbency and makes the quilt noticeably lightweight – distinct attributes of a particularly good quilt.
What Quilt Weight Should I Choose?
There are five options available.
Lightweight Summer 200gsm - This is a light weight quilt and has been designed for mild to warm climates where a very lightweight summer quilt may be too cold, and a full winter quilt may be too warm. It is the equivalent of 1-2 blankets.
All-Season 300gsm – This quilt is similar to the one above in that it is an ideal middle-ground when it comes to warmth, with an extra 100gsm. This makes it an ideal all-season quilt. It is the equivalent of 2 blankets.
All-Season 200gsm + 300gsm - This quilt consists of 2 quilts - one 200gsm and another 300gsm that can be used separately. They are joined together with plastic snaps. This allows you to use the 200gsm as above in summer, and the 300gsm as above in autumn or winter. Together, it is the equivalent of 3-4 blankets. This a great option if you would only like to use one quilt all year long.
Warm Winter 400gsm - This quilt suits sleepers who like to be comfortably warm when they sleep or need a little extra warmth, but do not like the 'heavy' feeling of a quilt (for personal or medical reasons). It is the equivalent of 3 blankets.
Super-Warm Winter 600gsm - This quilt is designed for very cold climates, as well as for people who are cold in bed on a night and need a little extra warmth for a comfortable and relaxing night sleep. This is very warm so won't be ideal for everyone. It is the equivalent of 4-5 blankets.
Your doona choice depends on your own personal preference and temperature when it comes to sleeping, as well as the climate that you live in. Our personal recommendation is the All-Season 200gsm + 300gsm for all year-round use; due to being 2 separate quilts, you can make it cooler or warmer depending on the time of year.

What is the difference between this quilt and the 100% bamboo fibre quilt?
1. The alpaca/bamboo quilt contains animal wool - meaning it is not a vegan product.
2. The alpaca/bamboo quilt - the 100% bamboo fibre quilt is dry-clean only.
What is the material like in the quilt?
BAMBOO FABRIC IS:
Luxuriously soft - softer than any high thread count material such as premium cotton, which makes it simply outstanding to sleep under.
Highly absorbent – skin is kept dry and comfortable as moisture is wicked away from the skin to keep you cool in summer, warm in winter.
Naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic so it's gentle on sensitive skin.
ALPACA FLEECE IS:
Naturally clean – one of the more natural and cleaner fibres. Unlike sheep, Alpacas do not attract parasites that would require them to be chemically drenched. Also, Alpaca fleece is not coated in lanolin so no chemicals are needed to clean the fibre once shorn.
Lightweight – Alpaca fibre is semi-hollow which makes it uniquely lightweight, yet warm
Superior thermal and warmth performance – the semi-hollow feature makes Alpaca wool particularly ideal for keeping warmth in when you most need it.
The Alpaca & Bamboo Quilt features an Ultrasoft quilting design and superfine bamboo/cotton casing. Enjoy the lightness and softness of the quilt whilst you sleep in the comfort of the excellent thermal properties of both bamboo and alpaca. The quilt is easy to care for as it is naturallly antibacterial and odour resistant. Each quilt comes with a 5 year guarantee with the Melbourne-based manufacturer. Made in Australia.
