Do Not Disturb
New Zealand Wool Pillow Duvet
Others use wool. We choose Wisewool™
30 nights to love it, or your money back.
You read that right. A duvet, for your pillow.
The Pillow Duvet is a quilted cover made from soft organic cotton with a layer of Wisewool™ inside. The wool is needle-punched into a single sheet that holds its own shape. Your pillow zips inside and the wool wraps all the way around it, like a sleeping bag. It is not a pillow on its own.
Keep the pillow you already like. The wool layer adds padding and a softer, fuller feel. One customer told us it put new life into their flat feather pillows.
It also gives moisture somewhere to go. Wool absorbs up to a third of its own weight in moisture without feeling damp, then gives it back to the air. That is how it helps regulate temperature on a pillow that sleeps warm. Polyester absorbs under one percent.
It is also what makes our New Zealand Wool Pillow a Deluxe. If you already have a Classic, zip it inside and you have the same thing.
Nothing is applied to the wool. Each one is cut and sewn by hand in our Auckland workroom, and it comes off to be machine washed cold.
Standard 71 x 47cm
King 87 x 47cm
Measure your pillow, not the pillowcase, and choose the closest size. It opens with a YKK zip, and your pillow slides inside.

Handcrafted in our Auckland workroom from local and imported materials:
- 200gsm Wisewool™ needle-punched wool, New Zealand strong wool, 36 to 39 micron, from Tairāwhiti Gisborne farms, quilted into the cover
- Organic cotton cover
- YKK zip
- Spun polyester thread
- Woven damask and recycled polyester labels
Nothing is applied to the wool. No antibacterial finish, no biocide, no flame retardant.
Pure wool does not like to be roughed up or heated while wet. Regular airing keeps it fresh and reduces how often it needs washing.
Machine wash on COLD on a delicate or wool cycle with wool detergent, in a front loader or a top loader without an agitator. Check the temperature setting before you start.
Dry naturally. If needed, finish in a tumble dryer on no heat. Let it dry fully before your pillow goes back in.
You may notice traces of natural plant matter such as grass, straw or thistle in the wool. It softens with use and is a sign of how little is done to the wool.

From Paddock to Pillow
Grown in Tairāwhiti Gisborne
The wool comes from more than 250 family-owned partner farms across Tairāwhiti Gisborne, all working to New Zealand Farm Assurance Programme standards.
Scoured, Then Needle-Punched
The wool is scoured in Napier and comes out clean, with the fibre intact. At the Wisewool factory at Te Poi it is needle-punched into a single sheet of wool that holds its own shape.
FAQ
No. It is a quilted wool cover. Your own pillow zips inside it, and the wool wraps all the way around.
If you want the pillow too, our New Zealand Wool Pillow Deluxe comes with one already zipped inside.
It comes in Standard (71 x 47cm) and King (87 x 47cm). Measure your pillow, not the pillowcase, and choose the closest size. If yours sits between the two, get in touch and we will help.
A little. It adds a layer of padding and a softer, fuller feel, and it works with your pillow's shape rather than replacing it.
“The wool pillow covers have put new life into my existing flat feather pillows and we love them.” Glen, Auckland
Wool absorbs up to a third of its own weight in moisture without feeling damp, draws it away from your skin and gives it back to the air. That is how it helps regulate temperature. Polyester absorbs under one percent.
So a wool layer over a foam or polyester pillow gives that moisture somewhere to go.
The Deluxe is our Classic wool pillow zipped inside a Pillow Duvet. Buy the Pillow Duvet on its own to put over a pillow you already own, or over a Classic you already have. Any two items in one order save 15%.
Yes. Machine wash it cold on a delicate or wool cycle with wool detergent, in a front loader or a top loader without an agitator. Dry it naturally. Full care instructions are in the panel above.
