The Norfolk Eye Pillow Company

Ten Minutes, Flat on Your Back.

The Norfolk Eye Pillow Company makes exactly what its name promises, sewn and filled by hand in a Norfolk kitchen, in small enough batches that nothing gets rushed. Each one is French flax linen, weighted to sit gently over closed eyes, and filled with organic lavender and flaxseed so it shifts to the shape of your face rather than perching on it.

Several are hand-embroidered with a single word, Peace, Breathe, Namaste, in a script that manages to suggest calm without shouting about it. They come in heritage colours, they warm in the oven or chill in the freezer, and if lavender is not your thing, there is a version without. It is a small object with a rather good claim on your afternoon.
