About Mérinos d’Arles Antiques®

The Mérinos d’Arles Antiques®, the finest wool of Europe, allows for the weaving of warm, soft, and downy blankets for winter nights and mid-season. Naturally crimped, it adds bulk for cozy blanket lovers. Double-sided, woven in natural colours, it adds a timeless decorative touch to your bedroom.

Unlike typical wools, Mérinos d’Arles Antiques® is not mechanically crimped. This superior wool is naturally crimped. Mérinos d’Arles Antiques® is unique in that the micron size of the fibres is comparable to that of cashmere. Most merino sheep's wool is approximately 24 μm, whereas Mérinos d’Arles Antiques® is approximately 17-19 μm. Fine cashmere is between 15 and 19 μm. The lower the number, the finer the fibre is.

This unique wool dates back to the days of Louis XVI in France. Merino sheep were imported and crossbred with French sheep known for their exceptionally curly fleece. Remarkably, the qualities of fineness and curliness were retained, resulting in a unique, resilient, and springy Merino wool. Over the passage of time and due to the wars that France had been through, the qualities of this special wool were lost as sheep were bred to produce higher yields of wool.

It was several decades ago that the owners of Brun de Vian Tiran were searching for this special wool in France. They had surveyed over 1,000 sheep farms in France, remarkably, only finding the wool at one farm. These sheep still retained the original bloodlines of this special Merino wool, a piece of French culture and history, just as much as Brun de Vian Tiran themselves are. These sheep have since been bred and multiplied into around 3500 today, which produce exclusively for Brun de Vian Tiran. The finest wool in all of Europe, with remarkable resilience and natural curliness, is produced without mechanical crimping, making it truly special. It offers the opportunity to weave warm, soft, woven in natural colours, it adds a timeless decorative touch to your bedroom, yet it is made from wool only.

Care Instructions

It is recommended that this item be dry cleaned. Keep in mind that natural animal fibres remain odour-free and hygienic for many years, requiring minimal cleaning. This is because natural fibres do not absorb fats and oils in the way that synthetic fibres do.

Most Brun de Vian-Tiran blankets and throws may also be laundered by filling a bathtub with cool water and a specialty detergent such as Eucalan Fine Fabric Wash. Then, drain the tub and refill it with cool water once more. Remove the blanket, and then gently roll inside an absorbent bath towel to remove excess moisture. Finally, hang to air dry completely.

About Brun de Vian-Tiran

Eight generations of blanket makers in L'Isle-sur-Sorgue, France. In 1808, Charles Tiran & Laurent Vian set up a mill on the banks of the Sorgue River to prepare woollen cloth and blankets.

The company is now managed by father and son, Pierre and Jean-Louis Brun. Among highlights in the recent decades were the creation of the first Mohair blanket in 1961, which has become the company's emblem - often imitated, but never equalled.

Their unending quest for noble fibres means the range includes Alpaca, Camel, Llama, Cashmere and exceptionally rare fibres such as Cashgora and Yangir.
