One comforter that works in February and in July. Wool is also the most hypoallergenic bedding we make. Both of those come from the way wool handles moisture, rather than from how much heat it traps.

Warm damp air is what makes bedding feel hot and close. Wool pulls that damp out of the air and holds it inside the fiber, up to 30 percent of its own weight, then lets it go again. The heat leaves with it. Dry air is what is left against your skin, and dry air is what feels cool. When the room cools down instead, wool traps warm air in its crimp and holds it against you, so the same comforter reads as warm.

Wool also keeps dust mites out, and it does that by keeping the air dry. Mites drink from the air rather than from water, so they only live where it is damp. The air under this comforter never gets there.

The wool arrives as a cohesive layered pad rather than loose clusters, so it can be anchored by hand at points across the whole comforter and stays put for years. Corner loops at each end tie into the ties inside a duvet cover, which stops the wool sliding to one end overnight. The cover takes the laundry. We make covers too, as an organic cotton sateen duvet cover, cut to match these sizes.

Wool runs lighter than you would expect for the warmth: about 6.5 pounds at Twin, 9 at Queen and 11.5 at King. That is a pound to three pounds under the cotton comforter at the same size.

The wool comes from certified organic farms in New Zealand that move their flocks between pastures rather than grazing one field down. Oregon Tilth certifies this comforter to the Global Organic Textile Standard, the wool inside it as well as the sateen over it, under license GOTS-10229, and an auditor walks the supply chain every year.

Spot clean it, or have it dry cleaned. Water and agitation will felt wool, and felted wool does not come back, so it never goes in a washing machine.

Wool comforter and wool duvet are two names for the same bedding, and this is the insert that goes inside your cover. Sheep make wool, so this one is not vegan. It lasts 10 to 15 years under a cover, hand-tufted in New Jersey beneath a sateen woven in the United States.

Designed in DC · Handmade in New Jersey

We choose every material and decide how much goes into each pillow, down to the side zipper you use to set the height. The same hands have been making pillows in this New Jersey workshop since 1981, and each one is sewn by hand, to order.

Nothing toxic, ever

Plant or animal fibers only, with no chemical processing in the build. The material inside and the cover over it carry independent certification (GOTS for cotton and wool, OEKO-TEX for latex), and every input down to the thread is GOTS-approved.

What you're not sleeping on

The list most bedding makers hope you never read. None of it is in a Circadian duvet.

Construction

Hand-tufted in New Jersey. The old way of building a duvet.

Most duvets at this price are box-stitched or channel-sewn. Box stitches let the fill bunch in the corners. Channels let it migrate to one end. Both leave thin patches where the fill has moved away.

Hand-tufting is the older method. Each tie is a corner loop worked through the duvet by hand, holding the wool in place without compressing it. The technique takes longer to do, and the anchor points hold the fill rather than leaving a seam to do the work.

Each Circadian duvet is tufted in our New Jersey workshop with corner loops across the surface. You can see them as small dimples on the surface, and feel them as gentle anchor points that keep the loft uniform from corner to corner.

What's inside

One license number covers the material inside and the shell over it.

Every Circadian duvet is GOTS Certified Organic end to end. The material inside and the shell over it are certified together under license GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth. The licence is renewed on an on-site audit every year. Most competitors certify only the shell.

  • 01

    Organic wool

    Long-staple fibers are smoother, springier, and last years longer than the short-staple fibers in commodity duvets. Wool is springy and resilient. It holds shape under your body weight, breathes when your skin warms, and wicks moisture vapor instead of trapping it. The duvet feels substantial without feeling heavy.

  • 02

    300 thread count organic cotton sateen shell

    A 300 thread count sateen weave, undyed and GOTS Certified Organic. The sateen float sits four yarns over one, which is what makes the surface smooth against skin while the weave stays tight enough to hold the fill in. Most brands in this category publish no thread count at all.

  • 03

    Cotton-wrapped thread

    Cotton-wrapped thread holds every stitch and every tuft, and like every input that goes into the duvet it is GOTS-approved. It is what the Global Organic Textile Standard specifies for stitching that has to take tufting tension.

  • 04

    Corner-loop tufts

    Hand-tied corner loops hold the fill where it was placed. Reinforced with a backstitch under the shell. Built to outlast the duvet itself.

Sizing

Three sizes. Cut generously for full coverage.

Our duvets are cut for drape rather than to the mattress footprint, so they hang over the sides instead of riding up at the foot. King covers both King and California King beds. Queen covers Full and Queen. Twin covers Twin and Twin XL.

Size Dimensions Fits Weight
Twin 72" × 90" Twin and Twin XL beds, guest rooms, kids' rooms ~6.5 lb
Queen 92" × 96" Full and Queen beds, couples who want generous drape ~9 lb
King 96" × 110" King and California King beds, taller sleepers ~11.5 lb

Hand-tufted, so size can vary by half an inch. The extra length on every size is intentional. Standard duvet covers run on the small side and tend to leave the duvet exposed at the corners after a few washes.

Comparison

How it compares.

Honest read of where each fill wins and where it loses. Heavier than down. Lighter than wet cotton. The right answer for hot sleepers and night sweaters.

  Circadian Wool Down Polyester / synthetic Wool/cotton blend
Allergens No down, no dust mite habitat Feather and dust mite allergens No down or feathers Low allergen risk
Chemicals GOTS Certified Organic through every layer, no flame retardants or PFAS Often treated for feather migration Microplastic shedding, possible PFAS finish Depends on the brand
Temperature Wool wicks up to 30% of its weight in moisture, releasing it as vapor so the surface st... Very warm, runs hot for some sleepers Traps heat and moisture Breathes, regulates well
Construction Hand-tufted with corner loops Baffle-box or sewn-through chambers Box-stitched or channel-sewn, migrates over time Varies; usually box-stitched
Lifespan 10 to 15 years 5 to 8 years before loft loss 2 to 4 years before clumping 5 to 8 years
Weight feel Substantial, grounded Light and lofted Light and synthetic Moderate

Comparison reflects typical products in each category. Individual brands vary. Down wins on lightness; we don't pretend otherwise. We win where it matters more to most buyers: allergens, chemicals, construction, and lifespan.

Why one duvet covers every season

The reason you own a summer duvet and a winter one.

Most duvets are one temperature. A summer-weight one leaves you cold in January, a winter-weight one has you throwing it off by June. So you buy two, store one in a closet half the year, and still wake up wrong in the shoulder seasons.

The reason is that most fills only insulate, they hold heat, full stop. Wool does something else: it moves moisture, and moisture is what actually makes you feel hot or cold under a duvet.

Most duvets only trap heat
Too warm in summer, you throw it off
Too cool in winter, you pile on blankets
Two duvets, and still not right
Wool regulates instead of only insulating, so one duvet works all year.

Wicks moisture, both ways

Wool pulls sweat off you when you run hot and holds warmth when you cool, so the microclimate under the duvet stays even all night.

Easy on your allergies

Dust mites need humidity above about half to survive, and wool holds the air under the duvet below it, so the thing you sleep under all night is not feeding your allergies.

Hand-tufted to stay put

Corner loops hold the wool in place, so it never drifts into corners or leaves cold spots.

One duvet, warm in winter and cool in summer, that is also easy on your allergies. You stop swapping duvets by season and stop waking up at the wrong temperature.

What's not in the duvet.

Most wool comforters are short-staple wool blended with polyester, scoured with harsh detergents, dyed with chrome-based compounds, and moth-treated with synthetic insecticides. GOTS Certified Organic means none of those steps touched this duvet. The wool is long-staple, scoured with biodegradable detergent, left undyed in its natural color, and never treated with synthetic chemicals. The lanolin is still on every fiber, which is the sign the wool was not over-processed. It is made in a GOTS certified facility in New Jersey, and the same yearly on-site inspection covers the shell, the wool, and the room the two were sewn together in.

License GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth, held against the Global Organic Textile Standard and renewed on an on-site audit every year.

Common questions about our duvets

How is the duvet hand-tufted?

Each duvet is hand-tufted in our New Jersey workshop with corner loops that hold the fill in place over years of use. The technique is older than sewn channels or box-stitching, and it doesn't migrate. The fill stays where it was placed.

What's the difference between this and a down comforter?

Down compresses under your weight and clusters cold spots over time. Our cotton and wool fills stay loftier longer, distribute heat more evenly, and don't trigger feather allergies. They're also heavier than down, which a lot of people prefer for the weighted feel.

Is this duvet warm enough for winter?

Yes. Both the cotton and wool duvets are full-weight three-season covers. The wool version handles colder rooms better because wool traps warm air without trapping moisture. The cotton version is best for people who want lofted warmth without overheating.

Will I overheat in summer?

Cotton breathes well and is comfortable in moderate summers. Wool actively wicks moisture away from your skin, which is why it feels cool to hot sleepers even on warm nights. If you're in a climate that gets above 80°F at night, the wool duvet is the better choice.

What sizes do you offer?

Three sizes. Twin (72 by 90 inches) fits Twin and Twin XL beds and works well in guest rooms or kids' rooms. Queen (92 by 96 inches) fits Full and Queen beds with generous drape on both sides. King (96 by 110 inches) fits both King and California King beds, with extra length so the duvet covers your feet without riding up. All three are cut from the same long-staple GOTS Certified Organic fill.

Does it come with a cover?

No. The duvet is the insert, built to live inside a removable cover that you wash, with corner loops that tie into the cover so it stays put. We make an Organic Cotton Duvet Cover to go with it, sold separately.

How do I wash it?

Spot clean only. Neither duvet goes in a washing machine. The cotton duvet is spot clean and sun only, and it should not be dry cleaned either. The wool duvet is spot cleaned, aired in sunlight every few months, and dry cleaned only if heavily soiled. The cover you keep on it gets washed, not the duvet itself.

Is the wool itchy?

No. The wool is soft and springy, and it is contained inside an organic cotton sateen shell, so it never touches you. You won't feel the fibers through the cover.

Is the cotton heavy?

Cotton is denser than wool, so the cotton duvet feels heavier per square inch. Most people read this as comforting rather than oppressive. Cotton runs about three pounds heavier than wool at Queen, and both feel substantial without weighing down on top of you.

How long will it last?

10 to 15 years with normal use and a duvet cover. Hand-tufting outlasts sewn channels and box-stitching by a wide margin because there's no thread under tension that can wear through.

Is it GOTS certified?

Yes. Both the cotton and the wool duvet are GOTS Certified Organic as finished duvets, the fill inside as well as the shell over it. The license number is GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth and renewed on an on-site audit every year. Every input down to the thread is GOTS-approved.

What's your return policy?

60-night trial. Sleep under it, and if it is not right, send it back for a full refund. Free shipping. We do not ask anyone to keep something they are not going to use.

What is the Circadian Organic Wool Duvet?

The Circadian Organic Wool Duvet is a hand-tufted duvet insert filled with long-staple organic wool from certified organic farms in New Zealand, inside a 300 thread count organic cotton sateen shell. It is GOTS Certified Organic as a finished duvet under license GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth. Wool wicks up to 30 percent of its weight in moisture while staying dry to the touch, so you stop waking up clammy, and it holds warmth when the room cools. It is made to order in New Jersey.

Who is the Organic Wool Duvet best for?

The Circadian Organic Wool Duvet is the pick for hot sleepers, people with night sweats, couples with mismatched temperatures and anyone with a dust-mite allergy. Wool moves moisture off your skin into the fiber, so the surface stays dry. Dust mites need humidity above about half to survive, and the air under a wool duvet never gets there. One wool duvet covers the whole year, warm in January and cool in July. It is not vegan, so if that matters, the Organic Cotton Duvet is the alternative.

What sizes does the Organic Wool Duvet come in, and how much does it weigh?

The Circadian Organic Wool Duvet comes in Twin, Queen and King. Twin is 72 by 90 inches and fits Twin and Twin XL beds. Queen is 92 by 96 inches and fits Full and Queen beds. King is 96 by 110 inches and fits King and California King beds. The Twin weighs about 6.5 pounds, the Queen about 9 pounds and the King about 11.5 pounds. Wool is a touch lighter than cotton at the same size, though the two are only about a pound apart.

How do I wash the Organic Wool Duvet?

Spot clean or dry clean only. The Circadian Organic Wool Duvet never goes in a washing machine, because water mats wool. Blot marks with a damp cloth, air the duvet in sunlight every few months, and send it to a dry cleaner only if it is heavily soiled. Keep a duvet cover on it, and wash the cover, which is what does the regular laundry.

What is the trial and return policy on the Organic Wool Duvet?

The Circadian Organic Wool Duvet is covered by the 60-night trial, the same as the pillows. Sleep under it for up to 60 nights, and if it is not right, email jacob@circadianrest.com and we send a prepaid return label. There is no restocking fee. The refund goes back to your original payment method within 3 to 5 business days of the duvet reaching the New Jersey workshop.

How long does the Organic Wool Duvet take to ship?

Every Circadian duvet is made to order in New Jersey, so the build comes first. Duvets leave the workshop in 7 to 12 business days, and the carrier adds 2 to 5 business days depending on how far you live from New Jersey. Checkout shows the arrival window for your address before you pay, and shipping is free within the contiguous United States. Express is $19 at checkout and moves your order to the front of the build queue.

What goes with the Organic Wool Duvet?

The duvet is the insert, so it lives inside a cover you wash. Circadian makes the Organic Cotton Duvet Cover in the same three sizes, with interior corner ties that catch the loops on the duvet so it stays put. For the rest of the bed, the Organic Cotton Sheet Set, Fitted Sheet, Flat Sheet and Pillowcases are the same 300 thread count organic cotton sateen. The Organic Wool Pillow pairs with the duvet for people buying wool for night sweats.

Solid Work.

The duvet is a well put together and solid unit.
Not a single flaw.
The stitching is exactitude itself and the cover is luxurious to the touch.
My only regret is that as of yesterday the weather was way too hot to use it.
I can hardly wait for the cold, rainy,nasty weather to use it

Awesome product!

I purchased the wool duvet insert for my husband's birthday and was thrilled with the quality and customer service. I haven't personally used it, so here is his review:

I received the wool duvet for my birthday. It is fluffy, enveloping, and comforting. It's like having a fluffy, weighted blanket that isn't restricting. I sleep on a memory foam bed, which is typically hot. I haven't had any issues with overheating, even with a cotton allergy cover. The tufting is great, and makes it feel lofty. The sateen shell is extremely soft. I will be purchasing the matching duvet cover from these guys as well.

It replaced a typical, inexpensive poly filled comforter that you can buy at any big box store.

I definitely recommend it. I've been looking for something like this for a long time.
