White swansdown may be washed in soap and water, after washing, shake it out, and when the down is somewhat raised, shake it before a clear fire to dry.
To wash a swansdown puff, fill a basin with soapy warm water and gently swish the puff to and fro. Don't rub or squeeze it. Do not rub soap onto the puff.
Let the water out and rinse the puff in several clear warm waters. Now give it a brisk shaking over the basin. Clip it by the ribbon or knob handle to a spring type clothespin and hang it on the shower bar to dry. It should, of course be washed as soon as it shows signs of soil. Shake it several times. I use a small eyelash comb to lightly fluff it out.
