European Kingsize Mattress

We're looking for a European Kingsize mattress 160cm x 200cm. We've been looking at the John Lewis Swaledale mattress (which they can provide in a European Kingsize) although it's extremely expensive and wondered if you have anything which you think compares.

Very many thanks in advance.

Hi Sam,
 
Thank you for your question.
 
We can make a Mattress size 160cm x 200cm but only in our Artisan Range.  These are the mattresses which contain natural fillings and can have a spring tension to suit your body weight for support.  There is an additional cost of 10% on top of the price of the mattress.
 
As the mattress you require is to be a bespoke make, we really need to ensure that what you order is going to be correct for you as a bespoke make cannot be returned to us as it is not covered under our 60 day returns guarantee.
 
The John Lewis Swaledale Mattress contains British Wool & Viscose Blend, Swaledale wool, hemp, flax and British wool blend together with 11400 pocket springs.   The details are pretty limited in that John Lewis do not state what the GSM is of the fibres used.  This is the grams per square metre and relates to the amount of fillings contained within the mattress.   You really do need to know this as this tells you the real quality of the mattress.   Here at John Ryan, we make sure that our customers are informed of exactly what is contained within the mattress together with the GSM - it is not a trade secret.   The overall comfort of this mattress is stated as being firm and is part of their Ortho range.
 
In order for us to recommend the correct mattress for you, we need to know body weights, heights and preferred feel. The spring tension within the mattress creates the support and that support is dictated by body weight so it is important for us to have this information.
 
From the information provided, our Artisan Bespoke mattress has firm top layers and contains 100% natural fillings of British Wool - 500gsm, Blended British Wool and Cotton - 1200gsm, Pure Horsetail - 1200gsm, a horsehair pad - 1200gsm and white cashmere - 1000gsm.   This mattress also has 3 rows of hand side stitching and contains 1600 calico encased pocket springs which is the best spring unit that you can possibly use in a mattress.  We are only one of a hand full of Bed Companies that use this type of spring unit.

If you would prefer a mattress that is not so firm, and dependent upon how responsive you would want the mattress to feel, we also have our Artisan Bespoke 002 which again contains 100% natural fillings but has an overall medium feel from the top layers.  It does however contain two layers of calico encased pocket springs which are very responsive and bouncy.

I hope the above is of assistance however, please telephone our small friendly team who will be able to recommend which mattress would meet your requirements - 0161 437 4419.
 
Kind regards
Julie
