Mary Had a Little Lamb’s Wool and Latex Bed

Though we are all somewhat sleep deprived, the little we get should be peaceful and restorative, right? So it’s more than mildly unsettling that most mattresses off-gas chemicals that are lung irritants and bioaccumulate in our dormant bodies. Thankfully, alternatives exist. The Mary Cordaro Collection’s Orana line of organic mattresses are exceptional for sweet repose. They use a 100% pure natural latex core, which ensures superior support both for your back (due to its resistance to sagging over time) and for the environment (the rubber is a rapidly renewable resource). Enveloping the core is Pure Grow Wool, which comes without bleaches, formaldehydes or dyes and is said to be sheared from happily grazing sheep. Check out the various levels; from the Basic - but still luxurious - version beginning at $859 to the sublime Orana III, which runs almost $5,000 for a king-sized bed, but sounds like a dream with its extra layer of rubber acting as a pillow top and a choice of firmness.

Embracing the cozy mattresses, Orana’s bed coverings are all made from 100% organic cotton. Sleep is always welcome… but maybe even more enticing on an Orana.
