Award Winning, British Wool Mattresses
Discover our award-winning, traceable British wool mattresses, handcrafted for natural comfort, breathability, pressure relief, and enduring support.
After winning the 2024 Made in Britain Award for Supply Chain Excellence—and being shortlisted for the 2025 Wool Innovation Award—our British wool mattresses stand apart.
Choose your feel using our numbered scale: five feels softest, while one feels most supportive. We avoid calling mattresses “firm,” because perception varies and comfort should always feel personal to you. Meanwhile, hand-teased British wool creates cloud-like cushioning, so supportive springs feel welcoming while you nest deeply.
Unlike big brands, we hand-stitch every mattress at the sides for genuinely enhanced edge support. Consequently, our hand side stitching resists roll-off and keeps the mattress stable, durable, and beautifully tailored. We use hand-teased fillings for deeper, springy comfort with natural bounce-back—rather than padded synthetics—and pocket springs made in Britain.
Finally, breathable fibres regulate temperature and maintain alignment, delivering supportive British wool mattresses without harsh, board-like firmness.
Furthermore, every mattress carries fully traceable wool, ethically sourced from British farms and verified from pasture to workshop.
Bedstead, Non-Turn Mattress Collection
Discover our Bedstead Mattress Collection of British wool mattresses, designed for slatted bases and balanced, breathable support. In turn, open airflow and responsive lift create naturally cooler, more comfortable nights on traditional or modern frames.
Hand-teased British wool and cotton create a gentle, sink-in surface with resilient, buoyant bounce-back for nightly comfort. In addition, a pocket-sprung core responds precisely to movement. We count individual springs—never “springs within springs.” As a result, edge stability and body alignment stay consistent across slatted platforms, minimising roll-together and partner disturbance.
If you like Vispring Bedstead or Hypnos, you’ll appreciate our comparable feel and workshop-led craftsmanship.
Choose your feel: number five is softest, delivering generous sink-in and a responsive, pressure-relieving cradle for side sleepers. By contrast, number one feels most supportive, using higher spring ratios and added hand-teased fillings for lifted resilience. Breathable natural fibres regulate temperature and wick moisture, keeping you comfortably cool through changing seasons.
Finally, meticulous hand side stitching reinforces edges, improves shape retention, and extends durability for reliable, long-term comfort.
Natural Comfort Mattress Collection
Experience a soft-touch cotton sleep surface that stays cool, breathable, and gentle against your skin. Beneath, a pocket-sprung core partners with micro springs to contour precisely and maintain consistent alignment across positions. Hand-teased British wool and cotton add deeper, buoyant comfort with airflow, pressure relief, and lasting bounce-back.
If you enjoy Harrison Spinks, choose our British wool mattress with farm-traceable fibres and traditional British craftsmanship.
Use our numbered scale: five feels softest with the most sink-in embrace and plush responsiveness. One feels most supportive, using higher spring ratios and extra hand-teased fillings to lift, align, and stabilise. We finish every mattress with genuine hand side stitching for stronger edges, better shape retention, and long-term durability.
Finally, we state spring counts as individual springs, never as multiplied totals from nested or micro-nested units.
Signature, Chemical Free Mattress Collection
Discover our Signature Mattress Collection, the pinnacle of craftsmanship in traceable British wool mattresses for discerning sleepers. We build every mattress 100% chemical free, prioritising purity, breathability, and calm, naturally temperature-regulating sleep. Then we finish each piece in British-woven wool ticking that feels wonderfully soft, breathable, and reassuringly durable.
Choose your feel with our numbered scale; five offers the deepest sink-in embrace, while one provides maximum support. Hand-teased British wool and cotton layers create buoyant cushioning that enhances pressure relief, airflow, and night-long comfort.
We pair these natural fillings with responsive pocket springs, tuned precisely for alignment, stability, and graceful motion isolation. In addition, genuine hand side stitching strengthens edges, preserves shape, and elevates longevity with meticulous heritage workshop techniques.
If you admire Savoir and Vispring signature models, you will recognise comparable refinement, tailoring, and deeply restorative support.
By contrast, our single-farm, traceable wool sourcing adds authenticity and provenance that mass-market luxury rarely matches. As a result, the Signature Collection delivers a quietly luxurious, personalised experience that honours materials, makers, and your sleep.

How to Choose the Right Mattress
Choose your mattress by aligning sleeping position, preferred feel, and materials. Use our clear scale: five feels softest, while one feels most supportive. Our British wool mattresses breathe naturally, regulate temperature, and relieve pressure with hand-teased wool and cotton. Moreover, we count individual pocket springs honestly and reinforce edges with genuine hand side stitching.

Finally, choose the scale setting that suits you, then sleep easier with authentic provenance.
One Farm at a Time- we source direct from British farms.
In today’s mattress industry, brands often promise traceable wool yet rarely provide meaningful, verifiable accountability at scale. Instead, many buy from central suppliers, pooling fibres from dozens of farms and obscuring genuine, farm-level origins and dictate pricing. They process wool at industrial scale, manufacture en masse, and apply vague labels like “British wool mattresses.” Consequently, the connection to land, sheep, and farmers disappears long before the mattress ever reaches you.
By contrast, we work differently and keep traceability genuine, specific, and verifiable for every mattress we make. Specifically, every handmade, UK-crafted wool mattress uses wool from one farm at a time—never blended sources. We don’t stockpile or bulk buy; instead, we source fleece directly from each farm individually. As a result, every mattress in that run contains wool from a single, named farm—nothing else whatsoever.
This approach requires patience and planning—not shortcuts—because responsibility sits at the heart of craftsmanship. Therefore, we offer true traceability you can check, track, and trust all the way back to pasture. Additionally, you know your wool’s farm, flock, and farmer, and we proudly share their names and stories. Importantly, we visit fields, build relationships, and document provenance so your mattress carries honest, transparent origins.
We don’t beleive in a mass market approach.
Compared with mass-market models, our method runs slower, smaller, and far more intentional by design. Likewise, we craft in small batches, using single-farm wool that preserves character, performance, and accountability. This disciplined sourcing also improves consistency and comfort while cutting needless waste across production. Ultimately, we honour land, animals, and you by building better mattresses through careful sourcing and stewardship.
Consequently, comfort, ethics, and longevity align—without compromise, shortcuts, or greenwashing.
Therefore, when you choose a Wrought Iron and Brass Bed Co. British wool mattress, you choose authenticity anchored in farm-level evidence.
Expect a mattress with a name, a place, and a story you can verify confidently for yourself.
*We are currently making from wool fleece sourced from Appleton Farm.
