Blankets Vladi
In all the variety of offers on the textile market, one can single out a company that has rightfully won its niche among manufacturers of high-quality and warm "helpers" for the cool season. Since 2003, Vladi has been successfully producing products from high-quality wool of domestic animals: sheep and alpaca. The company's products are in demand and popularity far beyond the borders of the country of origin - Ukraine.
Peculiarities
A large warm woolen shawl - this is what the word "plaid" means in his native English. Throughout its history, this useful thing has accompanied a person in different situations. She was both a warm cape by a fireplace armchair in the damp stone walls of medieval houses, and a permanent companion of the traveling times of old England, and just a beautiful blanket for armchairs and beds in bedrooms.
The products presented by Vladi, according to customer reviews, are capable of combining all the best qualities of this irreplaceable thing in cold weather. The range of products includes woolen and semi-woolen products with the addition of acrylic.
The range of Vladi blankets is presented in three collections:
- "Elite", "Classic" - products from 100% wool of high quality, light and warm. They differ in the density of the material and, accordingly, in the heating properties;
- "Economy" - semi-woolen models, consisting of woolen yarn and acrylic. The addition of synthetics significantly affects the price of the product, making the product more affordable. However, synthetic additives to natural wool dramatically increase the wear resistance of the product. Acrylic fibers are resistant to daily use and make the product easy to care for.
Materials (edit)
Whether it's alpaca wool, New Zealand sheep, or the collection's options with the addition of acrylic, any of the options can provide warmth and comfort on a frosty winter day or on a rainy autumn evening. Let's take a closer look at each of the yarn materials:
- Sheep's wool. The most common option among woolen products, excellent warming and keeping warm. The healing properties of the wool structure help with sciatica, colds, insomnia. Sheep wool products have minimal "prickly".
- Alpaca. Alpaca is a domestic alpine animal that is bred in the countries of South America, its wool resembles that of a sheep, but is more durable and thinner. Alpaca wool material is resistant to dirt and moisture, does not wrinkle, retains its high qualities for a long time. The only drawback is the high price, but this is fully paid off by the operational properties of the product.
- Acrylic. Artificial yarn made from synthetic fibers with a wool-like structure and is often used as a more economical substitute for natural wool. However, despite its chemical origin, acrylic has a number of advantages, such as color and shape stability, and antiallergenicity. Vladi blankets of the Economy collection made of combined yarn of natural wool and acrylic do not shrink, do not fade, and at the same time have a more favorable price.
Color solutions
A wide range of shades of Vladi products will allow you to choose a blanket for every taste. But these products are characterized by soft warm tones that create an atmosphere of comfort on a frosty day. They will be a worthy decoration for any living room or bedroom. The variety of designs ranges from ethnic ornaments to laconic geometric shapes.
For example, “Economy” models can be recognized by their characteristic large cage of different colors and combinations. This option is perfect for a rocking chair on the veranda or by the fireplace of a country house.
Selection Tips
When buying a Vladi blanket, pay attention to the packaging and label of the product. The blanket should be neatly packed in a transparent plastic zippered suitcase with a strong carrying handle. Inside, along with the product itself, there must be a flyer with a description of the model and indicating the composition of the product. The product should be packed so that the label is clearly visible, which also contains basic information about the composition and signs of the rules for caring for the blanket.
Such packaging bags protect the product from external influences until it reaches its owner. Subsequently, keeping a blanket in such a bag is not recommended, since air is required to store woolen items. A blanket in such a packing bag can be a great gift!
The choice of the size of the product depends primarily on the purpose of its use.
As a rule, warm blankets are purchased for practical use and therefore the most suitable option would be a size of 140x200 cm. This is the most comfortable size of a blanket for one person. In such a blanket, if necessary, it is convenient to wrap it up, transfer it from room to room, or take it on a trip.
When choosing a blanket designed to function as a bedspread or an armchair, it is necessary to build on the size of the furniture. The parameters of the blanket should be at least 20 cm larger and wider than the surface to be covered. However, a blanket that is too wide, reaching to the floor, can give a sloppy look to the entire interior, so it is recommended that you carefully choose the size of the product.
Tips for caring for wool blankets
In order for wool products to last a long time and not lose their original appearance, you should pay attention to their care. We offer several rules for the care of Vladi blankets made of natural wool.
Storage:
- Store folded wool blankets, a cotton bag or plain pillowcase over open storage. The product needs air, so it is not recommended to store the blanket in its original packaging.
- Products made from natural wool should be protected from direct sunlight.
- If the blanket is rarely used, then periodically it is necessary to ventilate it, preventing it from caking and preventing microscopic bacteria and bugs from appearing in the natural fiber.
Washing:
- It is recommended to wash blankets made of natural wool only by hand, at a temperature not exceeding 30 ° C.
- Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or bleaches. Washing with gentle detergents will be preferable. As a last resort, you can use shampoo.
- Dry cleaning of individual stains involves applying a product with lanolin to the contaminated area, followed by removing it with a soft sponge. Attention! Lanolin is not applied to the product in its pure form. It must first be diluted in a small amount of water and whipped into a strong foam.
- It is highly not recommended to wring out wool products. The best spinning option would be to gently wrap the product in a cotton cloth or a terry towel, then gently wring it out without twisting it.
- It is necessary to dry the woolen blanket on a horizontal surface to avoid deformation. Lay out the product on the fabric, straighten the irregularities. Do not forget to turn the blanket over to dry evenly on each side.
