The throw named Lava is bombastic and warm, just like the volcanic lava it is named after; one of nature's most fascinating phenomena. The material is a mix of soft alpaca wool with a small amount of nylon, but it's the yarn that gives the surface its special character. It's a bouclé type, characterised by small loops that give extra volume and create a characteristic fluffy surface that retains warmth without compromising on lightness. Lava is available in three beautiful versions with wide coloured stripes that meet on a warm cream background - a modern moss green and pink, an elegant blue-grey and brown, and the more classic navy and sky blue.
Lava is woven from the finest alpaca quality with a small amount of nylon mixed in for durability. In general, alpaca fibres are known to be softer, more durable and better at heat regulation than other natural fibres, and alpaca wool throws and cushions also fluff minimally, which means they typically last longer than similar materials. The wool is also hypoallergenic as it contains no lanolin, making it suitable for allergy sufferers.
Elvang is fair trade certified at the highest possible level within the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO) as Guaranteed Member. This guarantees that the throw is woven under responsible conditions for both the environment, humans and animals.
In general, there is no need to wash or dry clean wool as the material has self-cleaning properties and the fibres themselves have a unique structure that repels odours and dirt. The natural grease in the wool also helps to protect the material because it forms a film that prevents bacteria, for example, from penetrating, making frequent washing or cleaning unnecessary. If your throw does need cleaning, we recommend dry cleaning, which will keep its beautiful surface unchanged for as long as possible.
