The quality is excellent and the colour I chose was the silver grey. When I saw the two colours of choice, I was in a quandary to which colour to buy. There is some slight malting, but this is something I would of expected, from any material which is long haired. I have tried the cheaper teddybear duvet covers from other suppliers and there is no comparison of the quality to this duvet set. A great duvet cover for the colder months. Love it.
