Blizzard scarf
This elegant scarf uses 100% undyed sheep wool sourced from French flocks for the background whites and grey, and dyed French angora for the colour.
The wool comes from merino d'arles and prealp breeds from the South of France and is carded and spun at the Valgaudemar mill in Saint Firmin in the Hautes-Alpes before being handwoven on a canal barge using a Louet floor loom.
The wool is of the highest quality, selected and processed with great care at all stages. The weaving is done using 12 shafts and is from a French textile book printed in 1844 called Traité encyclopédique et méthodique de la fabrication des tissus by P. Falcot.
The scarf is both light and tough, folding down into a small roll. The wool is gentle and pleasant on the skin, but robust, hard wearing, countryside fabric and should last a lifetime. The angora is extremely soft.
Wear your own piece of the French countryside with pride.
Hand wash in lukewarm water, never above 30C, dry outside away from heat sources. Best to store in a linen bag.
