Here is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL of the Inis Meáin collections, the company created by Tarlach de Blácam to combat desertification on his island off the coast of Ireland. This cashmere coat is a real gem from the Inis Meáin collections! It was developed around ten years ago, as Tarlach wanted a coat that was light to wear, extremely comfortable, warm for winter, and with a simple, elegant design. The wool is dense and tightly knitted to keep out draughts. It is soft and does not itch. It is made from premium cashmere and merino wool sourced from traditional Italian producer Filati Biagioli Modesto, which complies with the strictest European environmental standards by using only organic dyes. The speckled pattern of white and electric blue dots is very delicate, adding texture and depth to this beautiful dark navy wool. Its soft collar can be worn flat or turned up to protect you from the cold. When out for a walk, slip your hands into the pockets. Designed, manufactured and finished by hand in the Inis Meáin workshop, this is of course a special piece featuring the patented Aran pattern, made in the only knitting factory on the Aran Islands - a genuine Aran from Aran chosen for our Hollington customers.
