Description

The Crudwell Sleep Mask was inspired by a stay at The Old Rectory in Crudwell, a small English village surrounded by the rolling countryside of the Cotswolds.

Handcrafted from surplus Italian wool and linen tweed with a 100% pure mulberry silk lining, the mask is softly padded with natural wool. Its generous shape blocks out unwanted light to create a cocoon of darkness around the eyes, while the smooth silk sits softly against the delicate skin around the eyes.

The surplus tweed was found in limited quantity and given a new life in The Beauty Sleeper collection.

Days there unfolded between the old house, its garden and the surrounding countryside, with the kind of quiet that makes you notice the smallest things.

Textured, warm and quietly understated, Crudwell carries something of that English countryside with it.

Handmade in very limited quantities. Once the fabric is gone, it is gone.

Why Darkness Matters

Light is one of the most powerful signals the body uses to regulate our natural sleep-wake cycle. Even low levels of ambient light, from a streetlamp or early morning sun, can make complete darkness surprisingly difficult to find.

By blocking out unwanted light, a sleep mask creates a consistently dark environment that can help you settle into sleep and remain undisturbed by changes in light throughout the night and into the early morning.

Generously shaped to provide comfortable coverage around the eyes, The Silk Sleep Mask creates a cocoon of darkness, whether at home, while travelling or sleeping somewhere unfamiliar.

Craftsmanship

Our pieces are designed in Copenhagen and handcrafted in small quantities by a family-run sewing studio in Shanghai, a city with a long tradition of working with silk.

We work closely with our Danish-based partner, who oversees the making of each piece. Every piece is carefully cut, sewn and finished by hand, with close attention to the details that make it comfortable to use and beautiful to live with, night after night.

For selected designs, we work with surplus and deadstock fabrics, allowing beautiful existing materials to find a new purpose.

Fabric & Care

This handcrafted sleep mask is made from Italian surplus wool and linen tweed, giving a beautiful existing fabric a new purpose.

The exterior is a blend of 58% wool and 42% linen, with a lining of 100% pure mulberry silk, chosen for its exceptionally smooth, soft feel against the delicate skin around the eyes. A layer of natural wool sits between the fabrics, adding gentle insulation and giving the mask its softly padded, comfortable feel.

Silk, linen and wool are naturally breathable fibres, helping the mask feel comfortable against the skin throughout the night.

Wash on a wool or silk programme at a maximum of 30°C using a specialist wool and silk detergent. Do not tumble dry. Lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Iron on low heat if needed.

The Beauty Sleeper Story

The Beauty Sleeper began with a simple desire to create a sleep mask beautiful enough to leave on the bed rather than hide in a drawer.

What started as a personal search for better sleep soon grew into a collection of objects for sleep and rest, inspired by travel, beautiful interiors and the things we choose to live with night after night.

Today, The Silk Sleep Mask remains at the heart of everything we do. Each one is handmade in small quantities, combining natural materials and careful craftsmanship with a design made to last beyond seasons.

Inspired by Crudwell

Inspired by a long weekend at The Rectory Hotel in the village of Crudwell, a small boutique hotel that was once home to the local rector and his fourteen children.

We arrived to tea and scones by a crackling open fire, and spent our days walking green country paths, listening to birds in the garden and falling asleep to the sound of almost nothing at all. Every night I opened the window to let the cool countryside air in before bed, and slept better than I had in a very long time.

Coming from the heart of Copenhagen, I was struck by how different the nights felt there. Darker, quieter and with the cool country air coming through the open window. The Crudwell Sleep Mask and Hot Water Bottles were born from the memory of those nights.

Questions Before Bed?

A Few Things to Know

A Softer Way to Sleep

Is a Silk Sleep Mask Good for Sensitive Skin?

Silk can be a particularly comfortable choice for sensitive skin because its naturally smooth surface creates very little friction against the delicate skin around the eyes.

Rather than rubbing or pulling as you move during the night, the silk glides softly against the skin. Our Silk Sleep Masks are lined with 100% pure mulberry silk, so only the smooth silk sits directly against your face.

Does the Sleep Mask Block Out Light?

Yes. The Silk Sleep Mask is generously shaped and softly padded to provide comfortable coverage around the eyes and block out unwanted light.

Its larger shape helps create a cocoon of darkness, protecting your sleep from streetlights, bright rooms and changes in light throughout the night and early morning.

This makes it equally useful at home, during the lighter months and while travelling.

Why Choose a Silk Sleep Mask Instead of Cotton?

Silk has a naturally smooth surface that creates less friction against the skin than cotton, making it particularly comfortable to wear around the delicate eye area throughout the night.

It is soft, lightweight and breathable, allowing the mask to sit gently against the face as you sleep. Silk is also less absorbent than cotton, so it is less likely to absorb the skincare products you apply before bed.

For something that rests against your skin night after night, we believe silk is simply the better choice.

How Should I Care for My Silk Sleep Mask?

Wash your Silk Sleep Mask on a wool or silk programme at a maximum of 30°C using a specialist wool and silk detergent. We recommend placing it in a washing bag for extra protection and washing it separately from heavier items.

Do not tumble dry. Gently reshape the mask while damp and lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Iron on low heat if needed.

Why Should I Use My Sleep Mask Every Night?

We believe a sleep mask is most beneficial when it becomes part of how you sleep every night, rather than something you reach for only when travelling or when a room feels too light.

By creating a consistently dark environment around the eyes, it helps protect your sleep from changing light throughout the night and early morning. Used night after night, your sleep mask also becomes a familiar part of going to bed, at home and wherever you sleep.

Soft, comfortable and made for nightly use, The Silk Sleep Mask is designed to be slept in every night, for years.
