Hull filled pillows are renowned for their supportive properties. The hulls conform around your body giving you extra support. Air circulates easily through the pillow. The medium size pillow can be used under your head, back, legs or arms. You can adjust the loft of your pillow by removing or adding hulls.

Product Materials: Organic buckwheat hulls. covered in a canvas fabric of organic cotton fibers.

This pillow contains no flame retardants and is chemical free.

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).

The pillow is hand made in our production studio in Albuquerque, NM.
