Frequently asked questions
Many people think satin and silk are the same because both feel smooth. However, silk is made from natural protein fibers that help retain the hair's moisture while also being breathable.

Angora wool is an exclusive natural fiber derived from Angora rabbits. The fibers are known for their extraordinary softness, lightness, and insulating properties. Angora wool is significantly warmer than ordinary wool, while still feeling light and comfortable against the skin.
Angora wool has a natural ability to regulate temperature. It effectively retains heat in cold weather while still feeling breathable and comfortable. The fibers are very fine and soft, making angora wool ideal for products worn close to the skin without scratching or causing irritation.
At Cillouettes, we exclusively use suppliers who practice the ethical and responsible harvesting of angora wool. This means that the wool is collected gently, without force or pain for the animals, and in accordance with applicable animal welfare standards. The animals’ well-being is a prerequisite for quality - and for our values.
The angora wool in our products comes from suppliers who use gentle collection methods, such as brushing or shearing angora rabbits, often in connection with natural moulting. The suppliers follow applicable animal welfare guidelines and handle the animals responsibly.
