This garment was produced at a family-owned factory in China. The factory complies with all local labor and safety regulations.

This luxury yarn manufacturer was founded in 1928. Its yarn collections are all produced internally at two factories, where they own and oversee the whole production cycle. They comply with the following standards: Textile and Health Association - Member Masters of Linen and European Flax (LINIFICO) - Certified European Federation of Flax and Hemp (CELC) - Member Sustainable Fiber Alliance (SFA) for cashmere.

Cashmere is one of the most luxurious wools, with desirable drape, softness and wrinkle resistance. It is up to three times more insulating than regular wool, with lofty fibers that can be tightly knit into warm and lightweight fabric. Like all wool, it wicks moisture and allows skin to breathe. Cashmere is considered hypoallergenic, since it doesn’t have lanolin. While more delicate than other wool, cashmere garments will not lose their shape if properly cared for. This is due to the fiber’s natural stretch that allows garment to move with you and recover.
