MERINO CASHMERE SILK

art of craft by design, sustainable!

LUXURY NATURE
   

Our luxurious Merino/cashmere silk cloth is woven from 95 % fine Merino wool and 5 % elegant cashmere at 150 g/m².

Merino virgin wool is the best pure new sheep’s wool.  It is breathable, hard-wearing and crease-resistant. Cashmere is one of the most valuable materials among wool products, and is obtained from the soft underhair of cashmere goats. Cashmere is climatized, very light and soft, and lends a slight shimmer to black cloth.

For our lining we use 100% silk cloth.

Silk is probably the most precious natural textile product in existence.  It is a continuous filament textile which is obtained from the cocoons of the silkworm. The finest silk – also known as pure silk – is obtained from mulberry silkworms reared in captivity, and originally came from China, where the Chinese emperor Fu Xi is said to have used this luxurious fabric to make robes around 5000 years ago.
Silk has a low density and is therefore light and comfortable, shimmers and gleams, and holds its shape very well.  The material provides excellent insulation against heat and cold, and hardly wrinkles.
Additional advantages of silk:

  • Silk consists of a protein, and is a natural fiber which is highly cohesive.
  • It absorbs natural body fluids and guarantees a cool, pleasant temperature in warm climates.
  • Based on its prime structure, silk material has a natural shine which refracts the light, and creates a unique, facetted, rich shimmer.
  • Silk does not conduct static charge.
  • The material is breathable and is therefore especially pleasant on the skin.
All of our robes with buttons are finished with genuine cow horn buttons! For all other robes we use high quality YKK zipper only!

LUXURY NATURE – wearing comfort of luxury nature!
