A few key points in our unique manufacturing process:
So many reasons to sleep on the natural Le Briand sheep’s wool mattress
Materials
You know what goes into your mattress.
Sleep naturally with healthy, ecological, organic materials of French origin
The mattresses are handcrafted from French noble, natural, ecological and recyclable materials.
The main materials used in traditional wool mattresses are :
- chemical-free sheep wool
- comfortable, durable mattress fabrics
The main component of the Le Briand mattress, wool, is sourced in France.
These are quality materials whose extraordinary properties are not altered by the successive stages of processing.
Without synthetic substances.
2 composition options are available:
- 100% sheep’s wool
- a mixture of sheep’s wool and horsehair (as appropriate)
Depending on requirements, the filling of the classic wool mattress varies to create a tailor-made product.
Beyond sourcing that respects the well-being of the sleeper, the entire artisanal manufacturing cycle, right through to delivery, incorporates an ecological and Made In France dimension.
Artisanal manufacture
Hand-made mattress
We make sheep’s wool mattresses authentically by hand, using the finest craftsmanship.
No detail is left to chance in the making of an classic woollen mattress.
Each step in the manufacturing process is just the right amount to create an upholstered mattress.
No gimmicks. Our expertise is first and foremost effective.
Made in France
You know the men and women who make your mattress.
With the comfort of a woollen mattress in mind.
The mattress is made entirely in France in our workshop in the heart of Paris, in the historic furniture district.
From sourcing to manufacturing of the mattress, it’s a domestic value chain.
The manufacturer of a box spring mattress has a duty to help consumers make the right choice:
- by asking the right questions
- by listening to your needs
- by taking into account any constraints
At Les ateliers Le Briand, we take the time needed to define the specifications so that we can design a mattress that’s good for your health first time.
It’s also our job to support you and to pass on to you, with complete integrity the experience and knowledge of a mattress manufacturer.
Once we are convinced that the mattress solution is right for you, we start designing the sheep’s wool mattresses using processes and techniques that are unique to our company.

8 easy questions to get straight to the point.
Guiding you towards the essential information we need to help you estimate your project.
Manufacturing lead time
Lead time
2 to 4 weeks
We can adapt if you have time constraints. Don’t hesitate to share them with us.
As we discuss the production process in advance, we’ll be able to estimate the lead time.
It’s important to know when you’ll be equipped to sleep better.
The lead time varies according to :
- the confirmed orders
- the workshop activity
- the complexity of the piece to be produced
- the final destination of the mattress
Thanks to a direct, local and short supply chain, the acquisition of materials has less impact on our lead times.
If you have time constraints, we invite you to share them with us so that we can do our best.
Lead time in the world of bedding
In contrast to brands’ drive for ever greater immediacy, there’s no quality logic in going ever faster in the bedding sector.
A mattress has incompressible manufacturing rules that are incompatible with a 24-hour production period and quality production.
We’ve waited a few years for a new mattress, so we can wait a few weeks for a cozy night’s sleep.
Price of a sheep’s wool mattress
The price is forgettable, the quality remains.
We want to be fair and just.
Our prices are positioned to serve the widest possible customer base, thanks to :
- a fair price
- a fine-tuned price for tailor-made products
- a “face” purchase price to be assessed by considering the mattress’s usage price
Prices vary according to the complexity of the item.

By subscribing to the Le Briand newsletter, you’ll benefit (without spam) from a wealth of new ways to sleep more comfortably.
Sleep,

Sleeping on a good mattress
preserves it!
Refurbishment
We also refurbish old woollen mattresses.
We recommend refurbishing a wool mattress every 8 to 12 years of daily use (depending on storage and usage conditions).
Reconstituting an upholstered mattress can be carried out during the day if the item presents no complications. We therefore invite you to contact us beforehand to agree on a time for refurbishment (depending in particular on workshop activity), so that you don’t have to find a temporary sleeping solution.
Bed set
We think of the bed as a whole, with each part working together. That’s why we make the custom box spring for complete synergy.
In addition to upholstered mattresses, we also make other custom bedding and decorative items, following the same principles:
- wool and horsehair mattresses
- the natural mattress for babies
- the box spring
- etc…
