Silicone pillows. From the cycle "Silicone Generation"

Pillows Vit got as the dowry transmitted any more not through one generation. But on the respectable age they did not look at all. Bedticks had quite tolerable appearance, the feather did not seem brought down, and was fallen down on them quite comfortably. The only thing that confused with Witu, so is their huge old-fashioned size 60х60. It seemed to their hostess awfully unmodern. On fashionable bed boutiques almost all pillows of 60х40 in size. Whether moreover on each turn proclaim urgent need to pour and disinfect a feather slightly more than once in a year that parasites what were not got …

Here then Vit also gave in to trends, having born the night girlfriends in a small desk where it quickly made of two big pillows three small desired size 60х40. But to surprise of the girl it is more convenient than her pillow from a peresypka not of steel, and even on the contrary: the neck after a dream began to ache a bit. Whether the new density of a feather did not approach under the constitution of the girl, whether still what unprecedented circumstances became that the reason.

Any time of Vit did not attach it significance. But once, sitting in a hairdresser's chair, the girl heard (as it often happens in institutions where many women gather) an enthusiastic review of one of masters of pillows from silicone fiber …

For a start I will tell that the down/feather is unhealthy. Also it is not practical at all. I earlier every year in a dry-cleaner handed over the to clean a feather and to change bedticks. With each cleaning the feather becomes thinner, down is washed away, and pillows grow thin in the eyes. With silicone fillers of any trouble....
