WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUCKWHEAT AND MILLET HULLS?
BOTH PILLOWS ARE EQUALLY FIRM AS WE SLEEP ON THEM; THEY OFFER THE EXACT SAME NECK SUPPORT. THE MAIN DIFFERENCE LIES IN THE TEXTURE OF THE FILLING:
Buckwheat hulls are large hulls that trap a lot of air which is then blown through the pillow when we move in our sleep. Buckwheat hulls rustle when we move. Millet hulls are tiny, they make no sound when they move and the filling feels smooth and velvety.
Millet hulls are not softer than buckwheat hulls, but they do feel more velvety because they are so tiny, round, and smooth.
All hull pillows are temperate (they do not take on heat in the summer or cold in the winter). Buckwheat hulls ventilate more easily given their large irregular shape. This will make a difference for those who tend to perspire at night and wake up to a damp pillow every morning).
What is Eco-Wool™? Eco-Wool™ is entirely derived from regional/domestic flocks of sheep that are raised following industry-leading sustainability and cruelty free standards. All of our wool is purchased from the best farms in the country. It is required that the wool has a minimal amount of vegetable matter and is not treated with any harsh chemicals. Carding equipment then removes vegetable matter from the wool in 6 different steps, eventually producing the signature wool batting
Our Premium Eco Wool™ is domestically sourced. The organic organic sateen fabric is made with organic cotton grown in Texas and milled into fabric in North Carolina. The certified organic buckwheat and millet hulls are from North Dakota. The pillow is hand made in our production studio in Albuquerque, NM.
The wool fill will compress 25% – 30% within the first couple of months but it will remain comfortable and supportive.
This pillow contains no flame retardants and it’s chemical free.
