Marlowe Jacquard Shawl

Every NIAO piece is crafted in small batches between Ireland and the UK, where traditional craftsmanship and modern design meet. We work exclusively with natural fibres sourced from heritage UK, Irish, and Italian spinners, chosen for their softness, breathability, and longevity.

Each garment is knitted using considered techniques before being hand‑finished by our makers. This slow, intentional process ensures every piece drapes beautifully, feels exceptional against the skin, and is made to last for years, not seasons.

Our approach is simple: keep production small, keep quality high, and honour the craft at every stage.

We source our wool from leading UK, Irish and Italian spinners, known for their commitment to quality, traceability, and responsible farming practices. The yarns are exceptionally soft, breathable, and naturally insulating, making it perfect for year-round wear.

To preserve the beauty of your knitwear, we recommend hand washing in cool water with gentle detergent. Reshape while damp and dry flat.

Thanks to the natural properties of wool, you can also freshen between wears by airing out your piece. Less washing, more wearing.

We’re proud to support Irish and British craftsmanship. Each piece is knitted and finished in small ateliers, where attention to detail and heritage techniques take centre stage. Our production partners share our values around fair working conditions and artisanal excellence.

We believe fashion should be thoughtful. That’s why we choose natural fibres, minimise synthetic use, and produce in limited batches to avoid overproduction. Our garments are designed to last; both in quality and in timelessness.

From our yarn suppliers to our ateliers, we work only with partners who ensure fair wages, safe environments, and responsible practices. We believe transparency is key to building trust and creating positive change in the fashion industry.
