English term or phrase: Duvet cover

I am trying to find some good duvet covers to buy on the internet (from ebay.de or another place), and I can't figure out what is the right term. Bettwäsche, Bettdecken, Bettdecken decken ... I have tried a number of combinations but I can't find what I am looking for. If you come acoss a link, that would also be appreciated. Vielen Dank im Voraus, Tchuss!
I know this is an easy one, I just can't get it. :)
