“Golden Quality” Super 120 Worsted Fabric – Biella Excellence Microgalles & Riga Azzurra

The Fabric

The perfect balance between the precision of Biella tradition and the timeless charm of English style. This 280-gram worsted fabric comes directly from the heart of Biella’s wool district, the land where centuries-old expertise and the purity of Alpine waters give life to the world’s finest yarns. The result is rigorously Made in Italy excellence, sealed with the prestigious “GOLDEN QUALITY SUPER 120” selvedge. Crafted from the finest wools, it offers impeccable stability, exceptional crease resistance, and a fluid, drapeable fit.

The visual texture is a masterpiece of micro-tailoring: at first glance, it presents a solid and sophisticated background in a transitional shade between dove gray and medium gray (mud). As you get closer, the fabric reveals the mastery of Biella’s weaving tradition: a subtle, tone-on-tone Prince of Wales pattern, crossed by a very fine, discreet blue stripe. A supremely classy design, designed for the modern gentleman and businessman who demands a rigorous, formal yet nuanced elegance.

Care and Maintenance

To preserve the reactivity and brilliance of Super 120 fiber over time:

Washing: Dry clean only at professional cleaners. Do not bleach.
Drying: Do not tumble dry. Allow the garment to dry on a suitable hanger in a well-ventilated area.
Ironing: Iron at medium heat (maximum 150°C) with a cotton cloth between the iron and the garment to prevent shine on combed wool.
Garment Resting: Super 120 wool has a natural memory. After wearing the garment, let it rest on a shaped hanger outside the closet for 24 hours: the fibers will relax naturally, eliminating creases.
