Maintenance
If you should be unlucky enough to get a stain on your wool pouf, start by vacuuming the stain. The wool is naturally surrounded by lanolin, which forms a protective film on the fibres, so stains have a worse chance of penetrating. If it does not come off with this, you can take a damp cloth and dab on the stain, finally do not rub. Should we be lucky enough to have snow fall on a winter's day, lay out your wool pouf or wool blanket in the newly fallen snow. It is the most effective method to get it cleaned in depth
The story behind
The wool puff is handmade by women in a women's cooperative south of Marrakech. Unlike the other puffs in the shop, this one comes with filling. The wool braids are sewn into a hard core which forms the filling of the puff.
The women's cooperative employs 160 women and thus contributes to raising the standard of living of many families in the small village. A school and kindergarten have been established for the women's children, so that the children can receive education and be employed while the mothers work. It helps the standard of living of the many families in the small village.
