Horsetail Hair
The main symbols that depict the horse are courage and freedom. This majestic animal is a being of power, independence, freedom and triumph. The Horse hair has been a staple ingredient in textiles for a really long time, the longest hairs are used for fabrics; medium lengths are used to make bristles for paint and domestic brushes; and very short hair is curled for use as stuffing in upholstered furniture and mattresses.
South American horse tail is the basis of every Savoir sustainable beds. It is steam-cleaned, without chemicals, then twisted into ropes for three months to give a permanent curl. At SAVOIR Bedworks they separate the long strands, transforming them into millions of tiny natural springs using their 100 year old carding machine. The result is a luxuriant cloud of unparalleled bounce and longevity. It not only reduces pressure points, it also wicks moisture and regulates your temperature.
