Pillow Size<\/h4>\n<p>Standard pillow size in Italy is 50&#215;70 cm, but preferences vary. Larger pillows are better for restless sleepers, while standard sizes work well for those who sleep still.<\/p>\n<h4>2. Shape<\/h4>\n<p>While the classic rectangular shape is common, there are also ergonomic, cylindrical, and square options. Traditional rectangular pillows are convenient and fit standard pillowcases.<\/p>\n<h4>3. Material and Firmness: Feather vs. Synthetic Foam<\/h4>\n<p>Pillows can be made from natural feathers or synthetic foams. Feather pillows are softer and cooler, while synthetic pillows are firmer, hypoallergenic, and easier to clean but less durable.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-93506 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/07\/sleep-pillow-stress-wellness.jpg\" alt=\"sleep-pillow-stress-wellness\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/07\/sleep-pillow-stress-wellness.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/07\/sleep-pillow-stress-wellness-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/07\/sleep-pillow-stress-wellness-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/07\/sleep-pillow-stress-wellness-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/07\/sleep-pillow-stress-wellness-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/07\/sleep-pillow-stress-wellness-155x116.jpg 155w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>4.
