About Possums

A Brief History of the New Zealand's Bushtail Possum The brushtail possum is an introduced species released in NZ in 1837 to establish a fur industry. As demand for fur fell and its value dropped to uneconomic levels the numbers of possums dramatically increased . In New Zealand conditions are quite favourable for possums and the population now tops 70 million. It is estimated that they consume 7 million tonnes of native and introduced vegetation per year.

, decimating New Zealand's native bush and birdlife. This includes eggs, chicks and insects and the most vulnerable is our national bird the kiwi. Heirloom Weavers NZ are passionate about sustainable living today, protecting New Zealand's environment and native species of flora and fauna, by keeping possum numbers to a more sustainable and natural balance.

 

Possum fur:  Soft, Warm, Luxurious. The brushtail possum is a small marsupial with a coat of unique, valuable fur. The secret of this fur’s warmth is its hollow structure, an attribute found in only one other species – the polar bear. With air trapped inside the fibre the fur provides sumptuous warmth, natural insulation and incredible lightness. In New Zealand this possum is also a major threat to our native wildlife    and its use in high-end fashion helps bolster our country’s conservation efforts.

 

Merino: Strong, Snug, Gentle. Born and bred in the high country regions of New Zealand, Merino fleece has a world-leading reputation for being gentle, strong and resilient. With the finest of individual fibres this fleece provides perfect comfort while delivering warmth across a huge range of conditions. We carefully select only the finest quality fibres from the very best of sources for our yarn.  

Mulberry silk: Sleek, Fine, Exceptional. Pure mulberry silk has been regarded for centuries as one of the world’s most luxurious natural fibres. With natural strength and hypoallergenic and breathable characteristics it is perfect material to ensure a smooth, comforting feel.    

Washing Instructions for Possum Merino   A wonderful virtue of possum merino garments is the possum fur and merino wool resists the absorption of odor and therefore need a lot less washing! Possum Fur has antiseptic qualities and is very gentle on the most sensitive skin. For hand washing rinse using warm water and an approved wool detergent, rinse well, dry flat. Dry cleanable. Do not bleach or tumble dry. If using machine wash use the delicate option only. 

A good tip is - the temperature you wash in is the same you rinse in as temperature changes can bring shrinkage. Also don't over lather, just a small amount of liquid soap is all you need, you can always add more later if you need it. Gently swirl and press the garment around in the warm water with no vigorous rubbing or wringing. You can roll in a towel to absorb water first before laying flat to dry. Shape garment while wet on towel.
