Condition Detail
This is a project gown, fabric is sturdy, has mild but widespread yellowing throughout, some large light yellow liquid areas to right front and side hem, occasional obvious rust marks throughout, one at front waist and many throughout back skirt and train, an odd triangle-shaped line of stitching to right back next to the armhole seam, ideal for display/costume unless it's cleaned and then carefully reworked to cover these problems

Perfect for the neck
Color: Black and White
Excellent pillow. After using it for about 3 weeks I can truly say my morning neck pains are totally gone. Took some getting used to but it was worth it. Very comfortable and seems to be well made. Highly recommend.

Good pillow
Color: Black and White
Very comfortable and good quality. The only reason I am giving it four stars is I wish it was a little bigger. I’m a man and when I wrap my arms around the pillow they aren’t supported fully.

Great pillow
Color: Black and White
This has helped with my neck issues. It does stay cool and keeps me from sweating like my old one, but I do wish it stayed cold.

Cooling but flat
Color: Black and White
I’m assuming it should be the way it is, but it is extremely flat.
