Does the wool clean and wear well?
A. There is a unique hardiness to the Tibetan wool due to the extreme altitude and climate of the Tibetan plateau where the sheep graze. Their wool is long in staple and contains an unusually high amount of lanolin, a natural stain and soil repellant. The wool is inherently strong, elastic, and resilient; all of which contribute to its longevity. Our Armenian production starts with the wool of Caucasian Mountain sheep. This wool heralds back to some of the finest antique Oushak carpets available today.
