Good Luck Charms

 

The four-leaf clover and the ladybug are considered to be good luck charms. Legend tells that the biblical figure Eve took a four-leaf clover as a souvenir from paradise. Therefore it is said that the owner of a four-leaf clover holds a little piece of paradise in his hands. As a heavenly messenger of the Mother of God, the ladybug is worshiped. Because of its usefulness for agriculture, the peasants believed that this beetle was a gift from the Mother of God and therefore named it after the Virgin Mary: "Marienkäfer" (engl. "Mary Beetle" = Ladybug).

Mohiar, finest  Material for Teddybears

Mohair is made from one of nature`s finest  sources for natural fiber, the Angora goat. This special fur is very long and naturally wavy. When sheared (this usually occurs twice a year) it is called mohair. The term "mohair" is derived from the Arabian word "Muhayar" which literally means "the fabric of goat hair". Despite the name similarity there is no relation to the Angora rabbit.

The collection of this noble hair does not require any animals to be harmed!

Angora goats are a delicate animal and are very sensitive to temperature change. This requires a dependable mild climate. Summers not so hot that the meadows dry out and winters not too cold. In the entire world there are only three regions that consistently meet these ideal conditions: Texas, USA, South Africa and Turkey.

The fur of the Angora go at is naturally white, curly and shiny. Its fibers have a remarkable strength when made into a pile fabric. These characteristics together with the noble appearance, silky feel and sheen make mohair one of the finest  fibers offered by nature.
