eiderdowns

Thick bed coverings

Eiderdowns are quilts or comforters filled with the soft, insulating down feathers of the eider duck.

The term is more common in British English, where it also refers broadly to any thick bed covering: She pulled the eiderdown up to her chin.

The down itself is prized for exceptional warmth relative to its weight.
