Fabriqué à la main en Écosse

Notre cachemire est tissé en Écosse, dans une filature familiale. Nos artisans écossais sont très fiers de maîtriser chaque étape du processus de fabrication ; de la teinture et du mélange, à la coupe et au pliage. La filature s'appuie sur des fournisseurs de confiance de Mongolie, de Chine et d'Afghanistan pour leur fournir le plus fin cachemire disponible à l'achat, en évitant les produits de basse qualité fabriqués en masse qui sont désormais si facilement disponibles sur le marché. Il est ensuite amené en Écosse où il est délicatement rincé dans des sources naturelles et soumis à plusieurs procédés de fabrication séculaires pour créer de magnifiques articles conçus pour durer.

##Le Vicuña est la fibre la plus rare au monde, dont la disponibilité est étroitement surveillée par les autorités péruviennes et les quelques marques sélectionnées qui la proposent à la vente. Le processus de transformation des fibres en tissu commence par une tradition remontant aux anciens Incas, selon laquelle les brins individuels sont soigneusement triés à la main. Ces fibres arrivent ensuite dans notre manufacture où elles sont tissées en pièces impeccables par des artisans, qui sont fiers du soin et de l'attention qu'ils consacrent à tout ce qu'ils produisent.

##L'excellence artisanale est représentée dans chacune de nos pièces en Vicuña. C'est simple, en réalité - les fibres les plus rares au monde, tissées par les meilleurs artisans au monde. Nous refusons de faire des compromis sur la qualité, c'est pourquoi nous ne nous approvisionnons qu'en Vicuña de la plus haute qualité, confectionné par les maîtres. Chaque article en Vicuña de notre gamme allie confort léger et chaleur suprême dans une pièce classique qui vaut littéralement plus que son poids en or. Alors que nos clients apprécient que nous rendions ce matériau de luxe plus accessible, nos concurrents ne sont pas aussi enthousiastes face au défi lancé à leurs prix excessifs. Nous aimons bien faire des vagues...

Handcrafted in Scotland

Our cashmere is woven in Scotland, at a family-owned mill. Our Scottish craftsmen stake great pride in maintaining every part of the manufacturing process; from dyeing and blending, to cutting and folding. The mill relies on trusted suppliers from Mongolia, China and Afghanistan to provide them with the finest cashmere available for purchase, steering clear of the low-grade mass produced stuff that's now so readily available on the market. It's then brought to Scotland where it's gently rinsed in natural springs and taken through several centuries-old making processes to create beautiful items made to last.

Product Material

Vicuña is the rarest fibre in the world, with availability closely monitored by Peruvian authorities and the select few brands that offer it for sale.

The process of transforming fibres into fabric starts with a tradition dating back to the ancient Incas, according to which individual strands are sorted carefully by hand. These fibres then arrive at our mill where they are woven into impeccable pieces by craftsmen, who pride themselves on the care and attention they dedicate to everything they produce. Archibald London A $3,000 Men’s Scarf for $575? A New Kind of Bargain by S. Christian (03/05/2017), The Wall Street Journal.

Each Vicuña item in our range balances lightweight comfort with supreme warmth in a classic piece that is literally worth more than its weight in gold. While our customers appreciate us increasing the availability of this luxury material, our competitors are not so keen on the challenge to their excessive prices. We do like to cause a stir...
