Handcrafted in Italy

In the valleys of the breathtaking Piedmont region lies what many consider to be Italy's textile mecca: Biella. In this small town sits a family run operation that has, for just short of three centuries, been producing the finest knitwear in Italy. There has been a long standing debate in the world of luxury about which country of the two titans of knitwear, Italy or Scotland, is truly the best. Truthfully, it depends on the product. Where the Scottish may triumph in heavy knits, the Italian masters trump them with blends and lightweight stitches. Whatever the case, with over 10 generations of the highest class of artisans at the helm, who boast an order book of clients that are some of the most sought after luxury houses in the world... you can't really go wrong.

##We create the softest cashmere products by acquiring the rare, finest grade (Grade A) fibres from the underbellies of Mongolian goats. Due to the dramatic fluctuation in temperature in their natural environment, Hircus goats have developed a beautiful, downy under-fleece. Cashmere acquired from Hircus goats is fine in texture, strong, light and soft. It provides excellent insulation and simply lasts longer without shedding or piling, as Hircus goats need to develop hair long enough to withstand the hardy outer Mongolian plains.

Nowadays, it’s not hard to get your hands on a cashmere jumper on the high street. But there’s a reason for that enticingly low price tag.

Low grade, mass produced cashmere makes for a disappointing product that sheds and piles easily. It’s got nothing on the real high-quality stuff, manufactured through traditional processes and sourced from communities that have passed down collection methods for generations.
