Wool is a natural fibre containing protein and lipides. Follicles and cells from the skin of animals like sheep, goat, muskox, bison generate wool. It is a renewable and biodegradable fibre that can absorb more that 35 percent of its own weight. A great insulator, wool is thermal resistant, inhibiting heat transfer. Naturally fire retardant, offers a great level of fire safety. Wool is self-cleaning and can absorb odours.
Silk is a protein fibre made from the chrysalis of silkworms. The strongest animal fibre is also the most refined and shimmering. The silk thread filament is obtained by unwinding the cocoons of the worms Bombyx mori in hot water and then spinning 4 to 8 filaments (long up to 1 km) together into a single thread. Silk is lightweight, takes dye very well and retains its shape. The characteristic shimmer is due to its triangular molecular structure that acts like a prism and refracts light.
