In modern times, a duvet is sometimes filled with silk, wool, cotton, or artificial fibers (such as polyester batting or other artificial material); it is sometimes confused with a comforter. Although comforters go on top the traditional sheets and blankets, duvets are used by themselves.
In some European countries, any thick, warm blanket is subject to being called a duvet, as this has become a popular name for these kinds blankets.
In Australia, a duvet or down quilt is ten called a "Doona", which is a genericized trademark (registered to the Tontine Group) which is derived from the equivalent common Scandinavian term dyne and popularized by the retailer IKEA in the 1970s. Originally the term continental quilt was the standard name used across Australia.
In Pakistan, duvets are known as ralli quilts, and are mostly used in the southern province Sindh.
