FAQs

What is Trochus Niloticus?

Trochus Niloticus is a type of sea snail shell, often referred to as 'mother of pearl', known for its iridescent quality and used in luxury accessories and embellishments.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

While the 100% wool provides good insulation, this shirt jacket is best suited for mild to cool conditions or as a layering piece. For extreme cold, a heavier coat would be more appropriate.

Can I hand wash this jacket?

No, hand washing is not recommended as it can damage the wool fibers and the Trochus Niloticus accents. Professional dry cleaning is the only recommended cleaning method.

How should I store the jacket during the off-season?

Store the jacket in a breathable garment bag in a cool, dry, and dark place. Ensure it is clean before storage and consider using moth repellents suitable for natural fibers.

What is the fit like?

The fit is designed as a shirt jacket, typically offering a slightly relaxed yet tailored silhouette suitable for layering. Please refer to the specific size guide for detailed measurements.

Are the Trochus Niloticus details durable?

The Trochus Niloticus details are of high quality, but like any embellishment, they require careful handling to avoid scratches or chips. Avoid abrasive surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Wool appears creased after storage

Gently steam the garment on a cool setting or have it professionally pressed. Avoid direct, high heat.

Light discoloration on Trochus Niloticus

Consult a professional dry cleaner experienced with luxury garments. Avoid using household cleaning agents.

Wool feels itchy

This is generally not an issue with high-quality wool, but ensure you are wearing a soft base layer underneath. The natural fibers should soften with wear.

Pilling on the wool surface

Gentle pilling can occur with natural wool. Use a fabric shaver specifically designed for wool to carefully remove pills. Avoid excessive rubbing.
