OPERA-LENGTH MITTENS

£205, In Stock
Color:

Bracelet-inspired wrist-warmers that extend to the elbow for maximum drama. Double jersery and super cozy, they are 3D-knitted with 100% virgin cashmere at a family-run factory in Hawick, Scotland - the home of legacy cashmere. One size fits all. Ships next day.

These opera-length mittens give the illusion of layering statement bracelets, achieved through an intricate stitch motif that was inspired by the iconic chain link detail featured across Cartier's Maillon Panthère collection of bracelets, watches and necklaces.
Our mittens start their journey in Inner Mongolia on the Cocoa Farm where a consortium of herdsman are reverting back to age-old farming practices that protect both the land and their goats. Gold-certified by the Cradle-to-Cradle Institute in Amsterdam, our single-origin, Grade A cashmere is 100% traceable, spun and dyed in the heart of Italy by Botto Giuseppe - a mill established in 1876. Our family-run factory in Scotland then 3D knits the yarn on a 12 gg Shima Wholegarment machine and their small team hand-finishes, and packs your mittens with the utmost care. They are based in Hawick, the global heart of heritage cashmere, where the River Teviot has been finishing forever sweaters with its pure waters for ages.
Hand-washing is recommended, but if you follow these easy instructions, you can machine wash at home too. Once washed, make sure never to hang your sweater. Fold to store with cedar or lavender to deter moths.
