St. Geneve James Bay Down Duvet
In Stock: Queen/Classic Weight, King/Classic Weight
This is the rarest down available anywhere in the world, even rarer than Eiderdown. It is hand collected from wild geese in the Canadian north by Cree First Nations under special license from the Canadian government. We are proud to support traditional practices of the Cree First Nations families with the purchase of this down.
The huge down clusters actually cling together like Eiderdown and must be hand sorted. It tests at 700 loft, but since it has the same unique properties of cling and high density like Eiderdown, it insulates as if it were a 900+ loft.
This uniquely Canadian down is hand collected, sorted and cleaned in Canada in small batches. We then hand sew it into a beautiful cotton cover. This soft, cashmere coloured down is as light as air yet warm and cozy.

DUVET SIZES
St. Geneve makes their duvets to fit on typical mattresses with about 15” hanging over the sides and foot. This is so that when one person gets into their twin bed, or two people get into their double, queen or king bed, the duvet will be pulled up to settle down around the sleepers without dragging over the side of the bed. If you put too big a duvet on the bed (say a king size duvet on a queen bed), it will hang over the side of the bed, and the sleeper will be pulling against this weight through the night, making for a less comfortable sleep.
Therefore we recommend
- Twin duvets for twin beds
- Queen duvets for Double & Queen beds
- King duvets for king beds
This will be the most comfortable choice.
SUPER SIZE DUVET
That being said, St. Geneve can supply special oversized duvets and covers for those clients that wish to cover their extra deep mattress (up to 19 inch thick.) Note that a mattress up to 14” thick will be covered by our normal sizes.
- Super King 114” wide x 100” long

“Our mission is to bring indulgence into bedrooms around the world.” St. Genève began as a small Canadian family business more than 50 years ago. Founder Michael de la Place was struck by the experience of sleeping wrapped in a European down duvet. At the time, duvets were virtually unknown in North America. The St. Genève line includes duvets, pillows, pillowcase toppers, blankets, and other gorgeous bed-related products.
Deeply committed to comfort, authenticity, and luxury, St. Genève is now world-renowned for luxury bed linens and quality down products. The bed linens are designed and made in Canada with top-quality silk, linen, and Egyptian cotton woven in Germany and Italy. St. Genève’s down has unsurpassed insulating power maintained by their high loft, density, and clinging properties, making them warm and lightweight.
