About Orkney Angora
When you buy from Orkney Angora, you’re supporting a small, family-run business on one of Orkney’s most northerly isles. Founded in 1982 by William and Elizabeth Sichel from the ruins of a derelict croft, the business is now run by Tracy Ranger from her smallholding on Sanday—remaining a truly personal operation.
Originally angora farmers themselves, the Sichels developed humane, stress-free shearing methods that continue to guide Orkney Angora’s sourcing. Their trusted spinner in China works exclusively with Feixian Angora Farm, personally inspected by William and found to exceed DEFRA welfare standards.
All dyeing and winding are powered by Orkney’s clean, wind-generated energy—reflecting the company’s commitment to ethical, sustainable production.

Cooling pillowcase
Color: 01 - Light Grey
These cooling pillowcases are fabulous. I just have one complaint they snap at the end instead of having a zipper, which could be uncomfortable if you’re laying on that snap. Also, it’s very hard to unfasten.

Comfortable and stays cool
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 1)
Great pillow. When i opened it, i noticed a strange smell, i assumed its the smell of whatever they use to make the pillow stay cool. You have to fluff it for a good amount of time to make sure the cooling agent spreads well in the foam. Is what i assumed atleast. Its a perfect amount of softness for me. Pair it with some bamboo pillow cases and you got a good night of sleep

Comfortable and Supportive, but Adjust the Filling
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2), Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
I’m very happy with this pillow. The size is big and it feels soft while still providing good support, perfect for midnight scrolling on TikTok.
One thing to keep in mind is that it can feel a little too tall if you use all of the filling that comes with it. The good news is that you can easily adjust the amount of filling to find the height that works best for your sleeping position. Once I customized it, it was much more comfortable.
Overall, great quality, comfortable, and worth the purchase.
