About Crescent Moon Alpaca Wool Pillow
The Crescent Moon Alpaca Wool Pillow is a hand-crafted, luxury-twist on the traditional use of wool in bedding and pillows. Using some of the finest wool fleece organically grown on local Canadian farms, Crescent Moon has sourced it’s materials in a responsible manner. The Sheep and Alpaca animals are raised in a pesticide-free environment and the processing of the wool is exempt of chemicals, dyes and bleaches. Why go Alpaca wool? Alpaca wool fibre is a renewable resource. It is porous (hollow) which leads to a very light and soft fibre that is dry and clean. This prevents dust mites and other allergens from settling into the fibres. Based on recent research, dust mites are one of the most common causes of asthma and allergies in the bedroom. The alpaca wool fibre surrounds a small amount of sheep’s wool creating space for more air and allowing for a higher loft pillow.
Our most popular Crescent Moon Wool Pillow sizes are Travel and Standard/Queen Size. We recommend a Medium or Firm fill level for back sleepers and a Soft for stomach sleepers.
All Crescent Moon Alpaca Wool pillows are Made in Canada.
