KARAKORAM ACCESSORIES

IT WAS IN 2005. MOVING BETWEEN SHANGHAI AND COLOGNE. WE STARTED OUR OWN BRAND: KARAKORAM ACCESSORIES. KARAKORAM IS THE MONGOLIAN TERM FOR BLACK MOUNTAIN. OUR LEADING IDEA: TO CREATE UNIQUE HAND KNITTED ACCESSORIES MADE FROM EXCLUSIVE, NATURAL WOOL QUALITIES ONLY. PURE AND REAL. QUALITY RULES. NOT CRYING FOR ATTENTION. WITH A PURISTIC, FUNCTIONAL YET CONTEMPORARY DESIGN APPROACH, CHUNKY HAND KNITTED SCARVES, LOOPS AND HATS HAVE BEEN OF GREAT IMPORTANCE SINCE THE BEGINNING. MADE OF PURE MONGOLIAN LAMBSWOOL AND CASHMERE AT FIRST, SINCE 2010 MOSTLY PERUVIAN BABY ALPACA AND MERINO WOOL FROM SOUTH AMERICA IS USED FOR OUR PRODUCTS.
SINCE A FEW YEARS ECOLOGICAL YARNS IN NATURAL, UNDYED COLOURS, ARE BECOMING MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT WITHIN OUR COLLECTION. NOT ONLY OUR YARNS, ALSO OUR PRODUCTION IS TAKEN CARE OF WITH RESPONSIBILITY: SINCE 2014 MOST OF OUR PRODUCING PARTNERS ARE FAIR TRADE CERTIFIED.
