A face pillow for those persons who, whether by choice or necessity, sleep in a prone position. It consists basically of a pair of horizontally disposed cylinders of resilient material placed side-by-side on a bed or other flat surface, and a pair of straps extending around the two cylinders so that, in use position, these straps determine the width of a gap between the cylinders. The user lies with his face thrust into the pillow so that his cheeks contact the pair of cylinders, and in so doing pushes the cylinders apart. The user's nose and mouth are disposed in the gap, which affords him space for unimpeded access to fresh air. The pair of cylinders may be encased in a pair of fabric pillow slips for sanitation purposes, and the pair of straps may either completely surround both the cylinders and their pillow slips, or may, for each cylinder, enter through a top slit, extend halfway around the cylinder, and exit through a bottom slit. The straps are preferably disposed adjacent the opposed ends of the cylinders, and optionally may be used as supports for the chin and forehead. Also disclosed are buckle means in the straps for adjusting the width of the gap, and slide and loop means for moving the straps closer together along the length of the cylinders, to adjust the pillow for persons with small faces.
