Women's wool beret, dark blue

It became a trademark for artists such as Picasso, with Marlene Dietrich it became a symbol of the modern woman, and other artists and intellectuals also liked to adorn themselves with the beret. Mackie of Scotland makes this wool beret in the classic way from virgin wool felt, albeit without the traditional little peak at the top and with an attached knitted cuff made from virgin wool, which lies snugly against the skin, warms the ears and ensures a good and comfortable fit on the head.

Wool hats and scarves - anyone who has been making these things in Scotland's harsh climate for more than 150 years may be assumed to have a certain expertise without hesitation. Founded in 1845 in Stewarton, Mackie of Scotland initially began with the traditional headwear of the Highlands - the Balmoral and Glengarry bonnets, the Scottish berets, are still made today and worn by members of the Scottish clans all over the world. Soon, however, warming accessories in the form of hats and scarves were added. Behind every piece that leaves the factory is the expertise passed down and developed from generation to generation, which is reflected in all stages of work from the selection of suitable wool to the actual knitting.
