Subject field(s)
  • Wool Industry
CONT

The wool obtained from the shearing of Sardinian sheep has always been abundant and available; its [thick] fiber composition makes it resistant and therefore ideal for the production of loom carpets. Sardinian wool is used [for] rugs whose harmony comes from the balance between design, color and the ancient Sardinian textile tradition.

CONT

Kemp fibers, either as long or short fibers, are very coarse and can be found in large amounts in Sardinian wools.
