Kyrgyz tradition of wool felting with a modern aesthetic, we use only natural
silk and merino wool in our designs for a luxury experience for our customers.

fashionably modern customer in the process.

put their soul into their art. Watch the video on our Shop page to see them at

beautiful, and above all, super comfortable accessories!
WHAT IS MERINO WOOL?
Merino wool is a highly
prized, very fine wool which is extremely soft to the touch.
It is naturally moisture
wicking and antibacterial, meaning you can wear your slippers in all
temperatures and keep your feet fresh and dry. Due to its structure, it creates
a thin layer of air between the skin and the material, creating insulation
which keeps you warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather.
HOW TO CARE FOR MERINO WOOL PRODUCTS
To refresh your felt slippers or other
merino wool felt products, leave them in fresh air, by an open window or door.
Avoid direct sunlight.
To wash your felt slippers or other
merino wool felt products, we recommend hand wash only, in water no warmer than
86 degrees Fahrenheit / 30 degrees centigrade. To offer them some protection,
you can wash them in the textile presentation bag in which they are delivered.
Felt products can lose their shape if you
ring them out too firmly, so after washing, leave them to drain completely,
gently blot with a towel, reshape while damp, and lay them out onto a surface
to dry completely.
