Description
An exceptional Italian boiled wool from the renowned textile manufacturer Manteco, sourced from an ex-designer collection. Made from 100% wool, this beautifully substantial cloth comes in a rich, classic navy with a timeless, understated elegance. The characteristic boiled finish creates a softly textured, compact surface with a wonderfully plush handle, giving the fabric a luxurious appearance without being overly formal. There is a real sense of quality to this wool, from its dense construction to the natural warmth and character of the fibres.
With gentle give in both directions, this fabric offers a welcome degree of flexibility while retaining the structure needed for beautifully tailored garments. It is an excellent choice for investment pieces such as winter coats, unlined jackets, oversized blazers, capes and elegant outerwear. The boiled finish provides warmth and body, while the naturally textured surface gives even simple designs a sophisticated finish. A premium Italian wool for those who appreciate exceptional cloth and garments made to be worn and treasured for years.

Care & washing
Boiled Wool is a purely natural fabric. It has a natural lanolin protection which makes woollen products so easy to care for. Boiled wool needs to be dry/steam/fresh air cleaned.
If a boiled wool coat has just got slightly dirty, it is fine to shake or brush it out very carefully using a fine haired brush that will not damage the wool.
To get rid of unwanted smells in boiled wool garments, place them in the bathroom when you take a shower. The air humidity has a "self-cleaning" effect on wool.
Steaming to keep the fabric fresh Please note!! test on a small piece first to see how your fabric is reacting to heat. Use a low heat with steam.
Steaming your wool fabric using an iron should be carried out in a methodical no rush way to ensure all areas of the fabric are covered.
Set the iron to a wool setting and hold the iron approximately 1.5cm/1 inch above the fabric. Hold the iron there for around five seconds before moving on to the next section.
Please allow 2-10% shrinkage on fabrics to be on the safe side. Wash before making up in the same manner as you would with subsequent washes (including drying methods)
Please test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash your chosen fabrics, as we cannot accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
Whilst every effort is made, we cannot guarantee that the colours you see on your screen are accurate because every screen shows colours differently.
