Feathers[edit | edit source]

The options are duck and goose down and feathers. We can classify them in down and feathers, where down of birds is a layer of fine feathers found under the tougher exterior feathers.

Goose feather. They are very soft, provide a great cushion and can easily move in any direction inside the pillow at any time.
