How it's made

Even weight, every square

The beads sit in 10 cm stitched pockets, so they don't slide to one side. Heavy, but it still breathes.

Side by side

Not just a heavy duvet

A duvet keeps you warm. A weighted blanket adds gentle, even pressure across your whole body, and it stays put all night.
