About the design
This wrap is about calm and quiet refinement.
About the feeling of being gently held — not to hide, but to rest.
Pure cashmere moves differently from any other fibre. It breathes with the body, adapts to temperature, warms without overheating, and feels weightless even on the coldest days. The delicate natural halo gives the fabric a soft, luminous surface — the kind that improves with every wear.
It drapes in smooth, easy layers and adapts to however you need it.

Living with it
It travelled to you folded; creases fall out with damp palms and time. Wool hardly needs washing — air it between wears; once a season, wash it by hand. The care page has the full instructions.
If it has stretched out of shape, it is not damaged. Wash it and lay it flat to 200 × 60 cm — it will come back. Those are this piece's own measurements, taken after finishing in the studio, and the one thing you can always bring it back to.
