Our Product Story
Wool fabric brings to mind cozy warmth. Wool fibers come from a variety of animal coats, some extremely soft, others less so. Wool fibers have crimps or curls, which create pockets that give the wool a spongy feel its insulating properties. The outside surface of wool fiber consists of a series of serrated scales which overlap each other much like the scales of a fish, allowing the fibers to cling together and produce a felted texture. Most wool will recover its original shape after being stretched or creased, and it will absorb up to 30% weight in moisture without feeling damp. Its unique properties allow shaping and tailoring, making the wool the most popular fabric for tailoring fine garments. Wool is also dirt resistant, flame resistant, and, in many weaves, resists wear and tearing.
Leather is a natural material whose durability, texture and beauty make it one of the most popular materials on today's market. All of the natural range markings are visible - a subtle assurance that distinguishes real leather from imitation. The beauty of each leather item is enhanced by unique varying grain patterns and the subtleties of color and texture created by dyes and finishes. With time and use, leather products will mature and darken - giving them a rich patina.
