Une histoire à découvrir...
Une philosophie… « Nature-à-Porter®»

Fondés en 1979 Les Ateliers de Maille spécialistes des collections en maille pour femme et homme ont fait le choix des matières végétales et naturelles.
Entreprise familiale française de tradition avec un véritable savoir-faire, nous recherchons à travers le monde les meilleures qualités de fils, les matières les plus innovantes provenant de la nature.
A la frontière entre l’artisanat et la fabrication moderne, chaque pièce témoigne d’un soin particulier apporté aux finitions et d’un désir de qualité.
Tous les modèles sont crées dans nos ateliers parisiens dans un style mode, chic et raffiné pour s’adapter à des matières luxueuses et répondent à une envie d’authenticité, une recherche du naturel.
Cachemire, bambou®, soie, coton organique, soja , lin et mélanges entre ces matières composent des collections “Nature-à-Porter®” gaies et colorées avec un souci constant du détail.
Notre philosophie privilégie les fibres naturelles et issues de la nature en alternative aux matières synthétiques et les Ateliers de la Maille investissent dans la recherche de nouvelles fibres végétales.

The Cashmere

Light, soft, extremely comfortable and warm, cashmere is one of the materials that most fires the imagination...

The Cashmere yarn used by Les Ateliers de La Maille comes from the mountainous regions of Mongolia. Cashmere is produced naturally from long-haired goats. A fine layer of down is gathered from under their thick fleeces by brushing. Its rarity and the way it is treated and knitted make it a luxury material par excellence.

Whether pure cashmere or blended with other natural materials such as bamboo or silk, you will appreciate its softness and feel.

Washing instructions: spoil yourself!

Wear your sweater… Cashmere likes being washed!

Hand wash it inside out in cold water. Dry flat. Cool iron if necessary. Cashmere doesn’t like steam or dry cleaning, which makes it limp.

Wear cashmere, a natural and luxurious material.
