Assessed from Vispring's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
The case for the Magnificence rests on its materials and how they are put together. Wool, cashmere and mohair on top give a soft, breathable sleeping surface, while horsetail underneath adds resilience, which means the mattress springs back rather than developing body impressions quickly. Natural fibres also wick moisture, a genuine help if you sleep warm. The two layer calico pocket spring unit, with 2,812 hand-nested springs, gives progressive support: gentle at first contact, firmer as you settle in. The base mattress depth is 25cm, with around 6cm of doming on top. Yes, the price is extraordinary, but you are paying for hand-teased fillings and hand-nested springs, not machine-made shortcuts. Tension options from Soft to Extra Firm let you tailor the feel.
Key Features & what's inside
- Top upholstery layer. Hand-teased real Shetland wool blended with cashmere and mohair. These fibres are naturally breathable and soft against the body, which means a gentler surface feel and better temperature regulation than synthetic fillings.
- Middle upholstery layer. Hand-opened Austrian Moosburger® horsetail. Horsetail is prized for its resilience, which means it recovers its shape night after night and helps the mattress resist sagging.
- Base upholstery layer. Blended real Shetland wool and cotton. This layer cushions the transition between the soft upper fillings and the springs below, so you feel support without feeling the spring unit itself.
- Spring layer. A two layer hand-nested calico pocket spring construction with 2,812 vanadium steel pocket springs. Two tiers of springs give progressive support, which means a softer initial feel that firms up as you sink in.

Who's it NOT for?
If your budget is anywhere near the mainstream, this is not your mattress: it starts at £13,349. It is also unsuitable if you prefer the contouring hug of memory foam, as natural fillings over springs feel more buoyant. And if any tension chosen proves wrong, there is little margin for error at this price.

How firm is the Vispring Magnificence mattress?
Vispring describes it as the ultimate in firm support, and it is available in a choice of tensions: Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm. So rather than one fixed feel, you select the tension that suits your weight and sleeping position when you order.
What is the Vispring Magnificence made of?
The fillings are entirely natural: hand-teased Shetland wool blended with cashmere and mohair on top, hand-opened Austrian Moosburger® horsetail in the middle, and a base layer of Shetland wool and cotton. These sit over 2,812 hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs in a two layer calico construction.
How deep is the Vispring Magnificence mattress?
The base mattress depth is 25cm, with around 6cm of doming on top from the generous natural fillings, give or take 2cm. The doming settles slightly with use, which is normal for a hand-filled mattress of this kind.
How much does the Vispring Magnificence cost?
Prices range from £13,349 to £27,099 depending on size, starting from £13,349. Sizes available are UK Single, Small Double, Double, King and Super King. It sits at the very top end of the market, reflecting the handmade construction and natural fillings.
