Did you know...

In 10th century China lots of the population slept with pillows?

  1. Made from hard substances though like bamboo, jade, porcelain, wood and bronze.
  2. decorated with geometric shapes, plants, animals, people.

In Greece and Rome the privileged class used pillows and guess what?? They were soft!

  1. reeds, feathers and straw
  2. intricate embroidered pillows emerged in Medieval (European) times.

ancient Egyptians not only had condos made of stone…their pillows were too.
