Have you ever thought that you will spend 1.2 billion to own a pillow. Let’s discover what’s so special about the most expensive pillow on the planet.
The most expensive pillow on the planet was designed by Thijs van der Hilst, a Dutch physiotherapist. He spent 15 years researching and inventing a pillow that helps solve sleep-related problems that people often face. The physiotherapist used 3D scanning technology and applied algorithms to design the pillow according to the client’s body proportions. This process makes the pillow that comes out of the factory a finished product.
Thijs van der Hilst – who created the most expensive pillow on the planet.
The world’s most expensive pillow is made from Mulberry silk, Egyptian cotton, Dutch foam and 24-carat gold-plated upholstery . The zipper of the pillow has 4 diamonds and 1 22.5 carat sapphire.
The fabric cover is plated with 24 carat gold.
A special feature of this pillow is that each customer will own a pillow that matches their own body shape and proportions. Initially, the manufacturer will use a 3D scanner to get the details of the buyer. Then, they will use algorithms and complex calculations to make sure the pillow is right for each customer.
