The Velvet Paradise

de Le Cuona

Only the finest fibres

 

Wool, Cashmere, Llama, and Alpaca are natural fibres from the fleece of ruminant animals. Sheep, Llama and Alpaca are shorn for their wool once a year. Cashmere is combed from Cashmere goats each spring when the goats moult.

 

These fibres are 100% natural, renewable, biodegradable, recyclable, and long-lasting. They provide warmth, softness, comfort, and beauty, are naturally fire resistant, while being remarkably strong and resilient and can be enjoyed for years and years.

Wool

 

There are more than 1,000 sheep breeds in the world. Breeds like the Merino produce fine wool while the Romney or Scottish Blackface produce thicker wool fibres. This range of fibres creates a diversity of fabrics from superfine cloths to thick robust textiles.

 

Our wool fabrics include 100% Merino wool and virgin wools to blends of wool and linen, or wool and silk. They range from the most robust textured upholstery fabrics to super-fine sheers and smart, tailored cloths.

Cashmere

 

Considered one of the softest and most luxurious animal fibres, cashmere is highly prized. Its name derives from a goat that is found across Kashmir in the Himalayas.

 

To deal with the bitterly cold temperatures these goats develop two coats of hair: a thick, wiry topcoat and a super soft undercoat which is where cashmere comes from.

Each spring when the weather warms up the goats naturally moult and shed both the coarse and fine hairs. The goats are brushed gently to gather the under fleece.

 

The fibres then undergo a selection process to keep only the longest and most delicate hairs. The fine cashmere fibre is six times finer than human hair and each goat only produces around 150gm of fibres. All these factors together are what makes cashmere a highly desirable luxury fabric.
