The new 1836 Merino wool quilt is distinguished by its filling, which comprises pure fine merino wool sourced from Kangaroo Island Wool. Recognised globally for producing Australia’s finest quality merino wool, Kangaroo Island Wool employs sustainable farming practices to raise merino sheep in a pristine environment, resulting in wool that is exceptionally soft, resilient, and warm. The luxurious feel and superior insulation of this wool make it an ideal filling for bed quilts, enhancing sleep comfort and quality.

The 1836 Merino brand name is steeped in history, tracing back to the year 1836 when the first settlers arrived on Kangaroo Island bringing the first merino sheep on the Duke of York, a barque, landing near what is today the town of Kingscote.

The brand pays homage to this historical event and signifies the long-standing tradition of merino wool production on the island. This rich heritage, coupled with advanced manufacturing techniques, lends a unique character to the Kelly & Windsor 1836 Merino wool bed quilts.

The origin of the merino wool in the 1836 Merino wool quilts is pure bred by elite sheep whose lineage can be traced back to 1836. As an island, the pristine environment is free of foxes and has abundant water and food sources with the result that the islands wool production is of excellent quality.

The merino wool in each Kelly & Windsor 1836 Merino wool quilt is certified by Kangaroo Island Wool to trace its origin back the the individual farm. No other Australian wool quilt manufacturer can offer this authentication nor quality.

The introduction of the 1836 Merino wool quilt showcases Kelly & Windsor Australia's dedication to innovation and the delivery of high-quality products. Its production process adheres to the highest standards of craftsmanship, ensuring each quilt is meticulously crafted for optimal comfort and longevity.

An 1836 Merino wool quilt from Kelly & Windsor Australia is more than just a bedding product; it is a blend of history, artistry, and luxury.

By bringing together the finest quality merino wool from Kangaroo Island Wool and superior craftsmanship, Kelly & Windsor Australia have created a product that provides unparalleled warmth and comfort. Their merino wool bed quilts are a testament to the company's commitment to quality, sustainability, and the promotion of Australia's rich wool production heritage.
