Used by humans for over 10,000 years, wool has stood the test of time thanks to its unique natural properties.

Today, countless textile fibers are trying to dethrone it, but science and industry are still not capable of producing a fiber with all the natural properties of wool.

An authentic natural material, wool is produced by woolly animals, first and foremost being sheep and goats (cashmere, mohair, etc.) but also yaks, camels, alpacas, etc. Their fleece protects them from the cold and allows them to sweat without getting wet.

So many qualities sought by man in the manufacture of a Blanket in wool:

• Wool is an excellent insulator : retaining air in its fibers, a Blanket wool keeps you warm. It has excellent thermal comfort with high antiperspirant power. This capacity is 20 to 30 times greater than most synthetic fibers.
  
  
• Wool is breathable and temperature-regulating : it can retain up to 20% of its own weight in water. It thus absorbs, throughout the night, the body's perspiration offering peaceful sleep without the feeling of humidity. Its absorption capacity takes place inside the fibers, which allows the air held between them to remain drier and protects the body from an unpleasant feeling of dampness. The humidity is then transmitted to the outside of the bedding.
  
  
• Wool provides natural air conditioning: the sleeping microclimate remains healthy all night, without excess humidity. Sleep with one Blanket wool has real impacts on health and daily hygiene. The Blanket in wool helps to solve problems such as respiratory allergies and sleep safety with a minimum of means and a maximum of effects.

Choose one Blanket in pure wool, you ensure at least three things: warmth, authenticity and quality.


Which wool to choose?You will find different types of wool on our site, each offering specific benefits. For the same type of wool, the weight (calculated in g/m²) gives an indication of the warmth of the Blanket. The higher the weight, the more Blanket is hot.

Woolmark virgin wool®
Shearing a sheep yields an average of 2 kg of wool. Mowing is done once a year, in spring or early summer. Washed, milled, degreased, the virgin wool is then carded and then combed. Of remarkable quality, its air-conditioning and anti-perspiration comfort is ideal in all seasons. The Woolmark certificate® guarantees you two things:

1. virgin wool represents 100% of the composition of the Blanket,
2. virgin wool comes exclusively from the shearing of healthy, living animals, as opposed to wool recovered from the fleeces of slaughtered animals and recycled wool.

Merino
The Merino is a breed of sheep native to Australia whose breeding continues in Spain and Provence and whose dense and curly fleece gives abundant, elastic and very resistant wool. A Merino sheep produces the equivalent of 9,000 km of wool fiber each year. Very soft and silky, Merino wool is three times finer than traditional wool and therefore absolutely does not itch. It is also very insulating and temperature regulating.Product benefit : breathable and warm, our merino wool blankets are ideal for all seasons (winter, mid-season, summer) and have an even softer feel than virgin wool.

Kashmir
The Cashmere comes from the long, silky hair of the Mongolian goat. Its production and manufacturing are limited to the sole geographical area of ​​origin of the goats, that is to say a territory which extends from northern Indian Kashmir to northern Mongolia. In winter, to protect the goats from the icy and cold wind, a tight down of fine and supple hair lines their summer coat. This down is removed with a brush during spring moulting on the animals' chests. It is then whitened using a rice flour preparation, then dyed in various colors, then woven, washed and assembled with imperceptible seams.Product benefit : of incomparable softness, our Cashmere blankets are warm, light and extremely silky to the touch.

The Alpaca
