Merino sheep feed only on nature’s natural resources such as grass, water, fresh air and sunshine. Their wool is ecological It grows back regularly. It is also 100% biodegradable and requires no chemicals in the wash.

Cashmere goats are not shorn. Breeders wait until they shed their excess hair in the spring. Then the hair is collected by hand and the hard hairs are separated from the finest ones. It takes several goats to produce enough hair to make one sweater.

Our cashmere yarn is produced exclusively in Italy in factories owned by the manufacturers themselves, in an eco-friendly environment, respecting the people involved in the entire production cycle and in compliance with a transparent production chain. The yarn manufacturer uses only the best fibres from the highlands of Mongolia.
