Luxury pillows from the House of Dumas

Maison Dumas is the story of a family that has been working for 5 generations to preserve a unique expertise in small bedding items. Founded in 1910, the company has been run by five generations of craftsmen. Thanks to the excellence of its craftsmen and their unique skills, Dumas Paris supplies some of the world's finest hotels. The workshops, which have been awarded the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (Living Heritage Company) label, produce pillows with the precision of exceptional craftsmanship, combined with innovative techniques. The precious filling is blown into refined fabric envelopes, sewn directly in the workshops. This century-old craft takes the time to apply unique manual gestures to guarantee exceptional quality. Each luxury pillow made by Maison Dumas is individually inspected and packaged.

A committed company

For Maison Dumas, the priority is for pillow production to be responsible and sustainable. The brand has opted to recycle its manufacturing waste and reduce the CO2 emissions associated with pillow production. These emissions are measured during bi-annual carbon audits. Part of the profits generated by production also fund carbon sequestration projects that contribute to global carbon neutrality. These consist of forest plantations in Bourgogne Franche-Comté, in which Maison Dumas employees participate.

Firm or flexible pillow?

Choosing the best firm pillow has the advantage of raising the head without compromising comfort. This is particularly beneficial for tall people, who need extra support to minimise excessive cervical strain. A firmer pillow is therefore recommended for taller people. On the other hand, for people of small or medium stature, a flexible pillow is recommended because it is less resistant to pressure.

A very firm pillow is also recommended for tall people who prefer to sleep on their side or in the dorsal position, as the firmness of the pillow ensures optimum alignment of the head, neck and spine in these positions. For those who sleep sideways, a soft pillow, or even a soft pillow for smaller statures, will be suitable, particularly in rectangular format. The latter is also suitable for people who sleep on their stomachs.

How do I choose the right size for my firm comfort pillow?

To improve the quality of every night's sleep, it's essential to make a careful choice when it comes to the size of firm pillow, depending on the sleeping position. Maison Dumas offers two standard sizes for its firm pillow collections: 65x65 and 50x70. The square pillow, also known as the European pillow, provides support for the head, neck and upper shoulders. It is ideal for people who sleep mainly on their back. The rectangular pillow, also known as the American pillow, supports only the head and neck and is ideal for people who sleep mainly on their side. If you sleep on your stomach, you should opt for a soft pillow. Beyond these standard sizes, if required, each luxury creation can be made to measure, in the desired dimensions in square or rectangular format, in the House's centuries-old workshops, located in Burgundy, France.

How do you look after your firm pillow?

To preserve the comfort and durability of an ultra-firm pillow from Maison Dumas, designed to accompany the sleeper 1001 nights, it is crucial to ensure proper care. The filling, which carries the weight of your head every night, will tend to settle with use. So it's essential to shake it out to distribute it properly and restore its initial volume and loft. We also recommend that you wash it annually using a large-capacity washing machine. When washing, it is important not to exceed a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius and to use the maximum spin speed. Finally, to dry the pillow, the use of a tumble dryer is highly recommended, with gentle cycles repeated until all residual moisture has disappeared.

Why choose bed linen to protect your bedding product?

Protecting a firm pillow with an appropriate protective cover is essential to preserve its support and comfort characteristics. This Haute Literie® product requires special care to ensure its longevity and quality. A suitable cover acts as a protective barrier against wear and tear and external elements, while the pillow's standard size ensures a perfect fit in bed. A white linen cover not only enhances the elegance of your bedding, but also prolongs the pillow's durability, whether it's filled with a natural or synthetic filling.
