The firmness of the mattress you desire is determined by a few factors. Your weight and height, and the mattress of your choice. The upholstery layers are the very top comfort layers and give different degrees of firmness alongside the spring unit which should be chosen based on your weight.
The Artisan Luxury is our softest sink 100% Natural Fibre mattress. Providing that ultra-deep comforting sink in the soft top layers. Made with entirely breathable fibres this model will help wick away moisture and regulate your body temperature unlike foams or boxed mattresses.
Blended Wool and Cotton features as the top Comfort Layer. This 50% Cotton and 50% Wool mix of a substantial overall weight allows for a deep sink sensation.
This is then followed by generous laters of Horsehair and Horsetail.
This Horsehair layer has shorter and finer fibres acting like millions of tiny springs. The loft of this layer is important as a sub-primary comfort layer. It will take a considerable number of years for this product to lose its recovery properties.
This additional layer of wool acts as a cushion between the two horsehair layers so the compression on the preceding layer of horsetail is separate to the compression on the forthcoming layer of horsehair. The support comes from 1476 Calico encased Pocket Springs in a tension of your choice.
8 padded turning handles on a kingsize.
Two rows genuine Hand Side Stitching & Hand Tufted.
The Woven mattress cover is completely Chemical-Free using a Natural plant-based fire retardancy protection.

The nearest comparable model we can find to this is the Vi-Spring Devonshire in terms of comfort. The Artisan Luxury, however, includes Horsehair and Horsetail, which the Devonshire does not, making it a considerably higher specification mattress. The Horsehair and Horsetail layers provide support for the softer Wool layers to prevent excess settlement.

Wonderfully comfortable bed that has hugely helped my pain levels.
After a very bad experience with advisors from John Lewis resulting in a bed that escalated my pain levels to intolerable, we fought for a refund and turned to John Ryan. If we had only done our research first and found them before going to John Lewis again!
The advisors at John Ryan listened to all I had to say about my health issues and what I wanted, then guided us towards the best bed for me. And it is! The Artisan Luxury mattress with sprung base is simply wonderful. I have less pain now and going to bed is no longer dreaded, as it was before.
The mattress is beautifully made, the base and head board are too. We are extremely happy with every aspect of the bed and the service from the team at the office. The delivery team were efficient, friendly and kind.
I cannot thank you enough nor express how much we have appreciated your help. I would recommend John Ryan beds and service to everyone.

Artisan Luxury
I ordered my mattress during this ‘lockdown’ period. I had been meaning to do this for ages, the company having been recommended to me by two other buyers. Now I had time to look at all the options and was very pleased to find that I could still talk to someone at length over the phone (Lee Burkhill). He took time to listen to my needs and to ask questions that helped me to make my final choice.
Re the mattress itself, the quality is superb. Comfort-wise I am still ‘breaking it in’ so more on that at a later date.

Excellent customer service both in delivery and product
Excellent customer service both in ordering, advice and support and delivery including communication. My new artisan luxury mattress arrived earlier than forecast which was great – the product is great – a little pricey but worth every penny – will definitely recommend and shop there again!

Our First Choice for Bed Selection.
The process of selecting and purchasing a mattress from this company is excellent. From the advice given on selection through to the actual delivery all is top rate.
We have now made two purchases over an eight year period and on each occasion the end product has been beyond our expectations.

Sooooooooooo Comfortable
I would like to thank Jonathan for all the help and assistance with the queries that I had with regards purchasing our mattress. In the end decided on the Artisan Luxury which we are very pleased with, we are waking relaxed and refreshed as neither of us are suffering from back ache anymore.
So once again thank you for all your assistance.
Delivery went very well and were contacted in advance to ensure we were ready to receive our mattress, this all during the lockdown.
Thank you
