Drift the night away on our hand-made
100% Organic Cotton and Natural Wool Combination Pillows. We take the purest
organic cotton batting and wrap the cotton batting core with our chemical-free natural
bouncy wool batting from free-range
New England sheep. No chemicals are used on the sheep and only biodegradable soap
is
used to clean and process the wool. We then surround the cotton/wool batting
fill with high quality 100% organic cotton unbleached cloth. Organic Cotton and
Natural Wool Combination Pillows are of soft to medium firmness when new. They firm up
over time and eventually are considered to be a medium-firm pillow. Although, all pillows will compress somewhat over time, organic
cotton and wool baby / sofa pillows start out
approximately 1-1/2" thick, and adult sized pillows start out approximately
4" thick.
Pillow Sizes:
- Baby or Sofa ~ 12" x 16"
- Standard ~ 20" x 26"
- Queen ~ 20" x 30"
- King ~ 20" x 36"
Natural Organic Wool's Inherent
Qualities:
Regulates
Temperature:
Wool is a natural insulator and the soft, plush wool used in our pillows help to keep you warm in winter and are naturally
breathable to keep you cooler in the summer. Wool fiber helps to keep your
body at the optimal temperature zone for comfort and rest.
Naturally Absorbent Fiber: Wool fiber's coil-like shape pulls excess heat and moisture from
your skin while you sleep. Wool fabrics can absorb up to 30% of
their weight without feeling heavy or damp. The absorbent fibers
"breathe" by wicking away moisture from the body and releasing it
into the air. This also aids in cooling you during warm humid weather.
Mildew and Mold Resistant:
Wool's natural resistance to mildews and molds comes from the way it repels
moisture, and lets moisture pass through it's fibers without holding the
moisture. (Please note that wool is mold and mildew resistant--not mold and
mildew proof).
Perfect Insulator: Wool
is warm in winter and cool in the summer because of its hydrophilic
ability to wick away excess moisture. In the winter, wool removes
moisture from the skin to keep warm and dry and wool’s insulating
qualities trap dry air and warmth near the skin. In the summer,
wool’s coil-like shape pulls excess heat and moisture from your skin
helping to stay cooler.
Naturally Fire Retardant: Wool has
natural fire-retardant properties. (High moisture content and
protective lanolin is resistant to combustion). It can resist flame
without the chemical treatment involved in fireproofing.
Naturally Non-Allergenic:
Wool, when separated by fabric pillow casing, is almost entirely non-allergenic. Although some may have a
rare natural allergy to lanolin, the oil found in wool, most
people's allergy to wool is a reaction to the many harsh and toxic
chemicals that go into the treatment, and finishing of conventional
wool. Serious chemical abrasives are routinely used to wash raw wool
for processing. Chlorine and mothproofing chemicals are routinely
applied to conventional wool before turning it into a finished
product.
Pillow Care:
Organic Cotton and Natural Wool Combination Pillows
are not machine washable. They may be spot-washed or
environmentally friendly dry-cleaned. Laying your pillows out in the hot dry sun
once or twice a year will help freshen them. Always use protective
pillowcases to keep your pillows clean and fresh.
Note: In order to maintain the sanitary conditions of our pillows, our pillows
may be returned in brand new and unused condition within 15 days of receipt.
Returned pillows with any hair, perfumes, lotions or any other signs of handling
or use (to be determined at our discretion) will not be refunded. Restocking
fees may apply to all returned pillows.
