Nothing compares to the delicate softness and versatility of pure natural down when it comes to bedroom sleeping product. At Poohy we have created, with great love and care, several ultra-luxurious collections of pillows made from 100% down.
The Grand Lux, Lux, Excellence and Excellence Trio series are intended only for connoisseurs of a comfortable bed and refined luxury - people for whom the quality of a sleeping pillow truly matters.
What exactly is it about a fully down-filled pillow that captivates buyers?
Choosing a pillow is not always about its structural characteristics - density and height. Today, more and more buyers pay attention first of all to the filling and only then focus on the thickness of the particular product. When we talk about the materials used to fill pillows, natural down stands out as the most luxurious and comfortable solution.
Goose down and feather fillings are divided into three types: only down; a combination of down and feathers; entirely from feathers. Down has held the leading position for centuries, so the price of products with 100% down filling is slightly higher than that of combined models and those made entirely from feathers. You are probably wondering how down filling surpasses feather filling? Let us explain...
Down has a unique three-dimensional structure. It grows beneath the main feathers on the belly and around the legs of birds and serves mainly to provide warmth. In waterfowl (ducks and geese) the density of the down is higher. Its structure consists of many tiny filaments arranged on a small stem in the form of a cluster. While feather filaments grow in two directions, those of down cover three sides, representing a three-dimensional structure.
Thanks to its special design, down manages to absorb and retain a greater amount of air, as well as to retain its warmth. Although extremely light, this natural material is an excellent thermal insulator. For this reason, a luxurious pillow made from 100% goose down has the unique ability to maintain a favourable temperature while drawing excess moisture to the outside, preventing the head from sweating.
Comfort in every season
Considering the role of down as a good insulator, we can conclude that a pillow filled entirely with down creates the most favourable environment for a healthy and restful sleep. It quickly adapts to body temperature and maintains it at optimal levels - neither too hot nor too cold. Down offers comfort in every season.
Moreover, with its airy structure, down filling offers softness and comfort that no synthetic material can provide. The ease of resting your head on an airy cloud of tiny white down is incomparable. Even if you like to sleep on a higher and denser surface, our pillows can satisfy that requirement. Simply choose a firm or medium model.
A 100% hypoallergenic product
Despite being recognised as the most luxurious sleep product, down pillows are still considered a potential allergen. There is some reason for this widespread belief, but it is completely invalid for our down products. We offer high-quality down pillows made from materials certified according to the Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Class 1 for the absence of harmful substances.
The down passes through multiple cleaning stages - it is washed more than 8 times and sterilised at high temperature to remove all organic residues and dust. The certificate also covers the cases made of high-quality percale cotton. The fabrics are woven with a fine thread to prevent the tiny down from escaping. This gives our 100% down pillows remarkable anti-mite properties and makes them suitable for people with allergies and small children.
