The ALL WOOL MATTRESS Our mattresses are made entirely from wonderful wool fiber. Wool actively moves moisture away from your body and when exposed to air, it quickly releases any built-up moisture. Because of its many amazing natural properties, wool is the healthiest, most compatible fiber that we have found for your sleeping environment. Benefits of sleeping on wool -- Click Here >> The mattress should be placed on a slatted frame, to give it continual airflow. This continual airflow is the way this mattress maintains itself. Wool is an ‘active fiber’ which self neutralizes very quickly. We recommend taking the mattress into direct sun to be revitalized once a year. The key for the optimal performance of this all wool mattress is 'dryness'. Continual and optimal airflow to the mattress will keep it at its best. We recommend that our mattress is paired with a topper for additional loft; the 5” mattress works wonderfully with a 3” Snugglemate for most sleeping situations. THE REGULAR - All Woolen Mattress This mattress is approximately 5 inches thick(compressed wool). It can be placed over latex cushioned slats or on bare wood slats. It contains 30% more wool batting than the skinny all wool mattress, and offers slightly more 'give' as a result.
THE ‘SKINNY’ - All Woolen Mattress This mattress is about 4 inches thick (compressed wool). It contains 30% less wool fill than the regular mattress, making it more economical and less bulky. It can be used instead of the regular mattress, especially when used with additional layers such as the "latex cushioned slats" (airflow is not sacrificed at all) or an additional Snugglemate!
All Wool Mattress — The Story We made our first all woolen mattress in September of 1999, as a custom order for our dear friend, Michael, who lives at the water's edge in New Zealand. He truly inspired us with his delightful whimsical approach to every little thing. All he wanted was the best, meaning the most pure, natural and comfortable mattress we could dream up. So, with his help and constant feedback - we finally admitted to ourselves that it had to be ALL WOOL - no springs, no cotton, no anything else - JUST WOOL - ALL THE WAY - and Oh my - this meant that our queen mattress would be filled with the fleeces of at least one year’s wool growth from 10 full grown ewes - EWE-WEE!! - can we give ourselves this kind of amazing gift from our wooly friends? YES, WE CAN! ...and our appreciation continuously grows for these nurturing wooly mattresses filled with the fleeces that glow with the many collected sunrays of all the seasons. |
