About this mattress
Ultra Dry is a new concept: two distinct mattresses, one for summer, one for winter, designed to be used together or separately. Each is 15 cm high, stacked, they form an h30 system; or the summer mattress combines with the winter topper for an h25 solution.
The summer mattress is built entirely from plant-based and natural fibres, linen and Ingeo™, cotton, palm leaves, for maximum freshness and breathability. The winter mattress wraps the body in cashmere, silk and wool on both sides, for deep, natural warmth.
Two mattresses. Twelve months of total wellbeing. Handmade in Italy.

What is Ultra Dry made of?
Ultra Dry is made by hand in Italy from natural fibres: vegetable horsehair, linen, cotton, Ingeo, cashmere, silk and Cheviot wool. It is covered in raw linen and cotton. It is made to order, by hand, one at a time.
How is the comfort chosen?
It depends on how you sleep. On your side, hips and shoulders need to sink a little; on your back, the lumbar curve needs support; on your front, a flatter, firmer surface keeps the neck neutral. The five questions of Find your Midsummer suggest a system, and at the atelier you choose by lying down.
Can I try Ultra Dry before ordering?
Yes. Come and lie down at the atelier, Via Andegari 4, Milano, Monday to Friday, 09:00–12:00 and 13:00–18:00. We can also meet by video. Appointments are confirmed by email within one working day.
How long does it take to make?
Production and delivery windows are confirmed on enquiry, because each system is made to order. Delivery is white-glove: the bed is brought into the room, assembled and dressed by our own team.
Why is the price on request?
Because every system is made to order, and the price follows the specification: dimensions, height, fibres, fabric and comfort level. We quote after the consultation.
