Made in Mykonos

Handmade shawl, woven on a traditional loom.

The Maou shawl is made of fine undyed,natural Myconian lambswool. This delicate wool–carefully collected from young sheep–is the ideal fabric for this type of clothing,as it is generally softer and feels gentle on the skin.

Decorated with soft and silky natural alpaca fibre, the shawl is inspired by the ambience and simplicity of the Maou village on the island of Mykonos.

All preparation and processing of our products is done by hand from start to finish, using ancient Greek techniques, every step of the way –from the alteration of the raw materials to the weaving of the yarn.

The production of the shawl begins with the collection of pure wool; this is obtained from the sheep without hurting the animals, cleared from dust, dirt or weeds, washed, and then spun by hand.

The process of spinning involves a rotary motion through which the fibres become cohesive and firm so as to evolve into thread.

The threads either retain their natural colours or are dyed using natural herbs.
