VAT for 40 × 60 cm, €85 for 50 × 70 cm or 60 × 60 cm, and €95 for 65 × 65 cm. Other sizes and shapes are priced on estimate. [See the price table](https://le-briand.fr/en/pillow/#price) ### Can I have a pillow made to measure? Yes, that is our trade.

[Get an estimate for your pillow](https://le-briand.fr/en/contact/) ### Soft, medium or firm: which firmness should I choose? There is no right firmness in absolute terms. What matters is the height of the filling relative to your sleeping position: on your side, you need more than on your back or stomach. Before making it, we take the time to define it with you. And if the filling turns out too high or too thin, the cover can be reopened at the workshop to adjust it. [Our wool pillow guide (in French)](https://fabricantmatelas.com/oreiller-laine/) ### Where can I buy a wool pillow made in France? We make our pillows in our workshops in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine, Paris, from components made and processed in France. You are welcome to drop by the workshop to talk it over with us, or send us your estimate request online. [Visit the workshop](https://le-briand.fr/en/address/) ### Wool or down pillow: which should I choose? We make sheep wool pillows and, on request, goose or duck down pillows with a partner manufacturer. For the same weight of filling, wool gives more firmness than feathers while staying supple; down remains lighter. [Compare pillow fillings (in French)](https://fabricantmatelas.com/oreiller/) ### Wool pillow: what are the pros and cons? Wool wicks moisture away instead of holding it: it is the filling we recommend first to sleepers who sweat. Ours has undergone no chemical treatment. On the other hand, a wool pillow is heavier than a down pillow, and it does not suit anyone who wants a flat, light pillow that can be washed at 60 °C.
