Woolen blankets – natural comfort with centuries of tradition
A woolen blanket is more than just a source of warmth – it’s an eco-conscious choice rooted in nature. Made from 100% wool, these blankets are fully biodegradable, renewable, and sustainably sourced.
Thanks to the natural properties of wool, each woolen blanket offers exceptional insulation while remaining breathable – keeping you warm.
Wool wicks away moisture and regulates body temperature, making it ideal for both sleeping and everyday use. Its softness, resilience, and timeless appeal make wool blankets a reliable and earth-friendly alternative to synthetic materials.

Wondering how to care for a wool blanket?
Wool is one of those natural fibers that, thanks to its properties, is relatively easy to keep clean. It doesn’t easily absorb odors (and it’s also easy to air out) and resists everyday dirt. For regular cleaning, it’s usually enough to give your wool blanket a good shake and hang it outside to air. The best spot is a shaded area (so it doesn’t fade) with good airflow (so it freshens up faster). After such treatment, the blanket will regain its fluffiness and softness.
And how do you remove stains from a wool blanket? The best way is to wash it. Washing wool blankets is recommended only occasionally, but it’s fine to do so when they get dirty or after an entire season of attending various reenactment events. How to wash a wool blanket? In the washing machine, at 30°C, using the wool cycle. You can also choose the delicate program. The key is to use a program with a low temperature and gentle spin speed. After washing, it’s best to dry the blanket flat—this way, it will keep its shape and won’t stretch out.
