Within the body of the mattress our Dartmoor wool and silk is hand teased. The Dartmoor sheep’s wool has a wonderful ability to wick away moisture and allow the air to circulate. The thermo-regulating properties of this wonderful wool and the cool properties of the silk ensures you keep warm in winter and cooler in summer.
Hand teasing is a labour-intensive process and is a method of separating the fibres of the natural fillings used in the layers of the mattress by hand. It is necessary to tease the natural fibres of our Dartmoor wool when used carefully by hand, working through the strands to remove any impurities in order to achieve an even layer of soft and natural aeriated filling.
For extra springiness we use a layer of hand-teased horse hair. It has been a staple ingredient of traditional mattresses for decades and adds unique properties increasing breathability and ventilation to the wool. The individual hairs never squash into a permanent shape, so this gives the mattress fillings added “spring”. If, however, you would prefer no horsehair simply ask – we will add more wool instead.
Because we use natural and organic materials such as wool and silk, with little or no treatment to keep them as natural as possible, there may be an initial aroma of lanolin. This will dissipate with use. Also due to the thick layers we use, a degree of settlement will naturally occur over time. This process may be accelerated by constant pressure or lying in a certain area leaving a slight hollow. This is quite natural; over time this will smooth out when the fillings settle evenly. The Topsham should be rotated 180 degrees and turned over, once a month, to help even out wear.
