The picture I linked is of a buckwheat pillow. Had no idea they were a thing before today.

What about silk or bamboo pillow cases?

I've only ever really used cotton pillow cases and cotton stuffed pillows. I recently upgraded to a foam pillow that I'm enjoying.

I've had a spelt pillow for 4 years now. The spelt is finer and quieter than buckwheat and it still holds the shape as well as 4 years ago

Please say it's the hull. Mice would be living in my pillow if it were anything edible to them.

I've been using my buckwheat hull pillow for about 5 years, too, and it's holding up great. I included a zipper when I made it, so I could refresh the stuffing, but I haven't ever needed to.

Sorry for the confusion, the pillow is filled with spelt husks, not just spelt
