Flegrea

Everyone knows Vesuvius, the symbol of the entire Gulf of Naples. Fewer know the Campi Flegrei (from the Greek flégo, "to burn"), a vast volcanic area west of the city. It is an ancient supervolcano: a large caldera with twenty-four craters and small volcanic buildings, some still active with gaseous manifestations and hydrothermal activity. The area is also marked by the phenomenon of bradyseism, the slow rising and lowering of the soil that has shaped the Pozzuoli landscape for millennia.

The Flegrea glove takes that geological movement as its design source. The back features a quilted pattern in the historic Vitale Barberis Canonico wool fabric, the quilted lines recalling the daily impact of bradyseism. Cashmere-lined. Hand-crafted by Neapolitan artisans.

Available in Blue, Forest Green, Alpaca/Beige, and Grey. The wool quilting reads differently across each colourway, but the bradyseism reference stays constant.
