Merino Wool Pillows
Our Merino pillows come in two versions, with a flock filling (many small wool pellets) or a fleece filling (finely carded layers).
The flock pillow can be fluffed up and pressed into position, similar to a feather pillow, but firmer and more shape-retaining.
A 40x80cm flock pillow...
- with 300g filling is very flat and good for stomach sleepers.
- with 450g filling is suitable for many people.
- with 600g* filling is very lofty, for side sleepers and broad-shouldered people.
*(If it is too thick at first, remove some filling and add it back later.)
A 40x60cm pillow with 300g filling is slightly higher than the 40x80cm pillow with 450g.
The fleece pillow is denser and flatter, and becomes firmer over time if it is not moved, but it can be fluffed up. It is also available with 300g (stomach/back sleepers), 450g (small to medium-sized side sleepers), or 600g filling (for broad-shouldered people).
Please note: Wool needs plenty of oxygen / fresh air. Place your pillow by an open window as often as possible to freshen it up. And give it a break for 2-3 days every now and then.
One more thing: The actual pillow dimensions are smaller than the stated size so they fit into the pillowcase. Its rounded shape fills a standard-sized pillowcase completely.
