Norwegian heritage is markedly displayed on it and we think it would make a wonderful gift for a loved one this season.

3.Natura

This is a very unique wool pillow from a company that has [over the years] been drawn towards making products which promote healthy sleep and/or lifestyle. It is in this view that it moved to create this piece which is filled with wool and covered with a fabric made from 52% polyester and 48% viscose. The non-removable cover has been infused with Ylang Ylang thus setting the tone for a sweet and pleasant dream while resting your head on it as you sleep.

It is available in three different dimensions which include standard (16” X 24”); Queen (16” X 28”) and King (16” X 33”). It is quite supple and has got a knife edge finish. The pillow shows moisture-wicking and temperature-regulating properties. It weighs about 2.21lbs and has a plush support to help cushion the head and neck hence ensuring deep and pain-free sleep.

Ylang Ylang has been known for its aromatherapeutic properties and having it infused into the cover of a pillow is indeed delightful. I must reemphasize that the company’s remain true to its mission which is helping people have a more relaxing/healthier sleep. The plush support is yet another feature that fascinates in some way. It is worth noting that Natura can only be dry-cleaned. So, we give this very one 10 out of 10.

4.Needlepoint

What a beautiful piece this is; it is made from 100% wool and has down insert in it. The manufacturer claimed that the materials used in making this pillow are natural and eco-friendly. It is available in six colours and has a distinctive art [reflecting nautical tone] displayed on it; giving it an attractive design on the whole.

It has a dimension of 16” X 20” and weighs 2.01 pounds. And talking about its features; it has got coordinating soft cotton velveteen which has a zipper affixed to it in order to make cleaning easy. The artistic design on it makes it a very valuable piece that can be used to decorate the home – especially when you intend to create a coastal or tropical frill.

This looks like a perfect woo pillow though but I cannot totally rule out the fact that there could be a few exceptions regarding its effectiveness. Nevertheless, it remains a great pillow to use in complementing the bedding for a good night rest when the need arises. And its striking design is another point of attraction that endears it to one’s heart-. This is definitely worth recommending.

5.Saro

Here is a furry wool pillow for you. It is filled with 100% wool and the cover has fur on one side with the other side being velvety or suede-like in appearance. This means you get to select whichever side suits your fancy at any given point in time. The cover also features a zipper closure at the back.

It is available in 12” X 20”; 16” X 16” and 20” X 20” dimensions and weighs 2.25 pounds.

It is highly recommended that the pillow be spot cleaned in order to preserve its outlook and texture.

For a classy item of its price, this piece from Saro Lifestyle Is truly a good value for money; it beats some of the high end pillows to quality and attractiveness. And as it relates to attractiveness, it is one set of accessory that can be used to spruce up the interior of any home. For all its beauty and quality, I am swayed to give it a 9 [out of 10]. The smell can be dealt with by spreading it out in the sun.

6.Holy Lamb

This has been designed to be a versatile piece that can be adjusted to individual preference. It is filled with tiny wool puffs which are similar to down and features a zipper that makes it possible for you to access the insert without any difficulty. It is made to give the head the needed platform to rest and does not get easily compressed as some other pillows would.

It is available in three (3) different sizes – 20” X 25”; 20” X 30” and 20” X 36”. And for the mention, the pillow is virtually made from natural materials; its cover is from organic cotton while the insert is eco-wool. One thing that gives this piece an edge is the fact that it is machine washable.

This pillow may be much more costly than the money spent on it and that’s down to how its rigidity could bring about pain to one’s neck and make sleep a bit distressing. Such scenarios can however be prevented by adjusting the pillow to suit one’s need and/or sleeping orientation – this is definitely while a zipper has been provided on the cover. That said; the onus is on the manufacturer to improve the quality of this particular product.

In this one, you have got a very good pillow that would cradle your head through the night – especially if you are a side sleeper.

Another unique characteristic of this pillow from Sleep & Beyond borders on its impressive cooling quality – this is made possible by its open cell technology. The wool and cotton cover can be washed in cold water and air dried.

Taking a cue from the brand’s name, this wool pillow would indeed help its users get a deep sleep and this singular benefit makes it one bedding accessory that is worth trying out. Sleep & Beyond has done a great job here and it really deserves some commendation for that. The material is of top-grade quality and that makes it very functional. I will give it 9 out of 10.

8.Surya

Surya is a brand that has been given to making pillows [as well as some other home décor accessories] of high quality over the years, and in this product, it did set the bar a little higher. The pillow [which is machine made] is 100% wool. It has a colour like that of coffee which probably explains why ‘espresso’ is included in the name – could make a wonderful gift for a coffee lover by the way.

This pillow is square and is available in two different dimensions – 18” X 18” and 22” X 22” – with a weight of 4 pounds. It is either filled with polyester insert or feather down and features a raised rosy design that makes it a valuable interior décor accoutrement. Additionally, it has also got a zipper closure which is in place to keep the insert intact.

It is more of a decorative piece and should work well to spruce up the living space; it would distinctively add beauty to your room. It is an absolute luxury with outstanding quality I must say. The rosy pattern and its espresso accent are feature that make this pillow really appealing. And the fact that it comes at a reasonable price is yet another plus.

The pillow features a raised cream wool on its front and back – this gives it a unique design – and the pom pom details added at the four corners of the pillow further make it all the more fascinating. It is 100% wool and is normally filled with either polyester or feather down insert. And in terms of the care instructions, it can be dry cleaned or spot cleaned.

10.Global Views

If there is one brand that deserves some commendation for incorporating the ‘old’ into a new world when it comes to making and/or designing pillows, then I believe Global Views should be it. Its product line is replete with accessories that reflect heirloom quality. One of these is the Trapunto wool pillow which was wholly crafted with hand and it rightly qualifies as a decorative piece.

It is made from a mix of materials; the cover is made of 70% wool and 30% nylon and its lining is of 100% cotton while it is stuffed with feather-down insert. It is 20” X 20” in size and it weighs 1 pound. The pillow is available in four different colors; these include grey, blue-grey, orange and lime green.

This quilted piece from Global Views is indeed finely made. I love it for the interesting features it bears – from the color which would subtly tune up the status of the room down to the overlapping pattern displayed on it – thanks to the Trapunto quilting technique. This pillow belongs in the class of the finest decorative accessories you will ever find in the store.
