We met Denise, the owner of the Frau Holle brand, at a trade show in Frankfurt, Germany and we were so impressed by the quality of her wonderful baby bedding products (and the Frau Holle folk tale is lovely too!).
So, we asked her if we could bring a few of her baby bedding sets to the US to share with our customers here.
Frau Holle is a character from German folklore immortalized in the tales collected by the Brothers Grimm.
In the folktales, she shakes her bed quilt and the feathers flying down to earth fall as snow here in the mortal world.
So, to this day, in Germany a blanket of crisp fresh new snow is a sign of cleanliness, purity, and renewal.
Denise has brought these qualities to her brand of baby bedding; using only the purest, most natural materials and a handmade production process to ensure that babies and children sleep in the soothing, pristine comfort associated with high-quality bedding.
The Frau Holle brand is Natural, Pure, Genuine and Honest.
· 100% Natural: FRAU HOLLE® uses natural materials and nothing else: goose down, merino wool, and cotton flocks. No synthetic fibers, no chemicals.
· 100% Pure: FRAU HOLLE® fills all its duvets using the same high-quality materials every time: either 100% goose down, 100% merino wool or 100% organic cotton flocks. No additions and no gimmicks, no synthetic mixture.
· 100% Genuine: FRAU HOLLE® knows where its natural materials come from: goose down with a certificate of origin, merino wool from Bavaria, Germany and cotton flocks grown organically in certified conditions…. Traceable at all times!
· 100% Honest: FRAU HOLLE® guarantees you purity. All natural materials are processed entirely by hand with typical FRAU HOLLE trustfulness and honesty – avoiding machine-based industrial production and chemical cleaning…. Honesty guaranteed!
At Wisdom Begun, we align with these principles 100% and we were so happy when Frau Holle agreed to partner with us in the US.
We only have a small quantity of these uber-exclusive baby pillow and duvet sets to share with our customers, so please grab them quickly while you can.
At the moment, we have three types of baby duvet and pillow sets available to purchase:
- Goose Down
- Merino Wool
- Organic Cotton
All of these materials are soft, breathable, hypoallergenic, kind to skin and kind to the environment.
You can be sure of the finest quality bedding for your baby whichever material you choose.
However, it's important to remember to follow safe bedding practices to minimize risks of suffocation or overheating. This includes using firm mattresses, avoiding overly soft materials or loose bedding in the crib, and choosing the right bedding for the climate and season.
Each Frau Holle bedding set comes with a flat, baby pillow 13.75 x 15.75 inches, a comforter 31.5 x 31.5 inches, and a lovely Frau Holle branded gift box.
Washing and care is easy. For the Goose Down and Organic Cotton variants, simply wash at up to 140°F and dry using the “Low” or “Delicate” setting on your dryer. For the Merino Wool variant, shake once a day, air once a month, hand wash only.
Frau Holle bedding is handmade in Germany using only the finest quality raw materials and is kind to your baby and kind to the environment.
The Organic Cotton is 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton. The OEKO-TEX certification signifies that every component of an item has been tested for harmful substances.
We only have a handful of these in stock, so please grab yours now!
MRP is $199.95 but we have secured this initial collection for you at a discount price of $149.95 including free shipping.
We realize that this is a premium price, but we feel that the quality in the materials and hand-crafted German workmanship is worth it for your child.
All purchases are covered by our no questions asked money back guarantee – just return the unused bedding to us in a sellable condition within 30 days and we will refund your purchase cost. 😊👍❤
Goose Down Specifics:
Goose down is a fantastic material for baby bedding contributing to comfort, safety, and health:
1. Insulation: Goose down is highly insulative, providing excellent warmth while being exceptionally lightweight. This helps to maintain a comfortable sleeping temperature without the heaviness that might come with other types of blankets or comforters.
2. Breathability: Goose down has the ability to wick away moisture and allows air to circulate effectively. This breathability helps to prevent overheating during sleep.
3. Softness: Goose down is very soft and plush, making it gentle on sensitive skin.
4. Durability: Down is durable and can retain its shape and loft with proper care, meaning that bedding can last through multiple years or even serve multiple children; making it a cost-effective choice in the long run.
5. Hypoallergenic Options: Frau Holle goose down products are processed to be hypoallergenic, removing dirt, dust, and allergens that might trigger reactions.
Merino Wool Specifics:
Merino wool is an excellent material for baby bedding due to its unique natural properties that provide both comfort and safety:
1. Temperature Regulation: Merino wool is exceptional at regulating body temperature. This means it can help keep warm when the weather is cold and cool when it's hot.
2. Moisture Management: Merino wool is highly absorbent, able to wick away moisture from the body. This helps to keep dry and comfortable, reducing the risk of rashes or discomfort caused by dampness.
3. Softness: Merino wool is finer and softer than regular wool, making it gentle on sensitive skin.
4. Hypoallergenic: Merino wool is naturally hypoallergenic and is also resistant to bacteria and dust mites; helping to create a healthier sleep environment.
5. Breathability: The natural structure of merino wool fibers allows for excellent breathability. This air circulation further aids in temperature regulation and moisture management.
6. Durability and Elasticity: Merino wool fibers are naturally durable and elastic, meaning that bedding made from merino wool can maintain its shape and form even after repeated washing. This makes it a practical choice for baby bedding, which requires frequent cleaning.
7. Natural and Renewable: Merino wool is a natural fiber and renewable resource, making it an environmentally friendly choice. This aspect is increasingly important to parents interested in sustainable and eco-friendly products for their children.
Organic Cotton Specifics:
Here’s why organic cotton makes an excellent choice for Baby Bedding:
1. Hypoallergenic and Gentle on Skin: Organic cotton is naturally hypoallergenic and free from synthetic chemicals such as the pesticides and fertilizers used in conventional cotton farming. This makes it much gentler on sensitive skin, reducing the risk of allergies and skin irritations.
2. Softness: Organic cotton is known for its softness, providing a smooth, comforting touch that is ideal for maintaining comfort during sleep.
3. Breathability: The natural fibers of organic cotton allow for excellent breathability. This quality helps in regulating body temperature by allowing air circulation that dissipates excess heat and moisture, ensuring the baby stays dry and comfortable.
4. Durability and Ease of Care: Organic cotton is strong and durable, able to withstand repeated washings without deteriorating in quality. This makes it practical for baby bedding, which requires frequent cleaning to maintain hygiene.
5. Environmentally Friendly: Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment; contributing to biodiversity and healthier ecosystems.
6. Absorbency: Organic cotton is highly absorbent, effectively absorbing moisture away from the skin and helping to keep the sleeping environment dry and comfortable.
