buckwheat pillow
Grain-husk sleep support
A buckwheat pillow is a pillow filled with buckwheat hulls—the hard outer shells of buckwheat seeds.
The hulls shift to conform to the head and neck, providing firm support that adjusts with movement.
Popular in Japan for centuries, buckwheat pillows appeal to people seeking alternatives to foam or down: I switched to a buckwheat pillow for the neck support.
