FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of these pillows?

The pillows measure 40cm x 80cm (approximately 16 inches x 32 inches), which is a European Continental size.

How do I clean these goose down pillows?

It is best to use a professional cleaning service experienced with down products. Avoid machine washing or drying. Spot cleaning for minor issues and regular airing are recommended.

Will standard pillowcases fit these pillows?

Standard UK or US pillowcases are unlikely to fit. You will need pillowcases specifically designed for European Continental or King Size pillows (40cm x 80cm).

How much do the pillows weigh?

Each pillow weighs approximately 850 grams, providing a substantial feel and good support.

Are these pillows suitable for allergy sufferers?

While goose down is a natural material, some individuals with severe allergies may still react. For highly sensitive individuals, synthetic or specially treated hypoallergenic fillings might be a better choice.

What is the benefit of Hungarian goose down?

Hungarian goose down is known for its exceptional softness, loft, and insulation properties. It is hand-picked to ensure quality, providing a luxurious and comfortable sleep experience.

Can I use these pillows all year round?

Yes, the natural breathability of goose down helps regulate body temperature, making them suitable for both warmer and cooler months.

Troubleshooting

Pillow feels flat or has lost its loft.

Gently fluff the pillow by hand, tossing and turning it. Airing the pillow outdoors in a shaded area can also help restore loft.

Down filling is escaping the pillow.

Check the stitching along the seams. If minor leaks are present, consider using a down-proof repair tape. For significant leaks, professional repair might be necessary.

Pillow has an odor.

Air the pillow outdoors in a well-ventilated, shaded area for several hours. Avoid washing unless absolutely necessary and follow professional cleaning guidelines.

Uneven distribution of filling.

Gently massage and shake the pillow to redistribute the down evenly throughout the casing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These pillows arrive ready to use. We recommend fluffing them upon receipt and before each use to redistribute the down filling and restore their loft.

Compatibility:

  • Pillowcases: Due to their European Continental size (40cm x 80cm / 16" x 32"), standard UK or US pillowcases may not fit. Look for pillowcases specifically designed for European Continental or King Size pillows.
  • Bedding Sets: These pillows are compatible with most bed frames and mattresses, adding a touch of luxury to any sleeping arrangement.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: It is recommended to use a professional cleaning service that specializes in down products. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the down and casing.
  • Spot Cleaning: For minor spills or stains, gently dab the affected area with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Allow to air dry completely.
  • Airing: Regularly air the pillows outdoors in a shaded, well-ventilated area to keep them fresh and dry. Avoid direct sunlight, which can degrade the down.
  • Protection: Use a pillow protector to guard against stains and wear, extending the life of your pillow.
