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.

About us 
Jane –
My fourth ‘John Ryan’ mattress, my second for myself personally.
I didn’t think that I could get the same comfort from the new structure as I did from my first so I bought the softest mattress now in the collection for a spare bed. I trialed the mattress for a few weeks finding that it gave me the comfort I needed. I have chronic pain conditions.
The service is absolutely brilliant giving me honest information and good service.

Amazing service from knowledgeable…
Amazing service from knowledgeable staff. Went out of their way to accomodate last minute changes to our mattress specification. Their mattress is a high quality product that is perfect in comfort.

I’m delighted with my gorgeous Artisan mattress, it is luxury indeed. I’d been hankering after one of these for a long time, and was very pleased to find one in the outlet with a very generous 40% discount. Other than having a few slightly dirty marks on one side, which should clean off easily, it appears and feels brand new. It’s been very comfortable from the first night, and I’m sleeping really well. I use a microfibre topper to add a little extra softness, (though it would be soft enough without it) and to make it last as long as possible. I’m so happy to have finally bought one of these beautiful mattresses, it was worth the wait! The customer service and delivery have been faultless. This company is a pleasure to do business with, and I’ve already recommended them to a couple of friends.

Great purchase!
Would highly recommend buying a mattress from John Ryan, not only were the information videos very helpful but also the staff, when I phoned with a query. We bought a double size luxury artisan mattress and have found it extremely well made and blissfully comfortable. The quality of the workmanship is outstanding. John Ryan certainly fulfilled their mission statement! Thank you .

Great company, fantastic mattress.
Great company, absolutely fantastic mattress, I sleep like a log. A proper mattress, properly made.
Yes they’re not the cheapest but I tried cheap (Otty etc) and honestly good sleep is priceless, well worth the investment. Lots of good advice on the website but some of it is contradictory or confusing so it’s best to speak to their staff who are highly knowledgeable and helpful.
Honestly couldn’t be happier.
