Used by mountain residents and shepherds, it's somewhat like felt but has a more rustic feel. Unlike regular felt, Burel is both woven and felted, making it tougher and resistant. The edges don't need finishing since it won't unravel. It's also waterproof, fire-resistant, and one of the strongest fabrics globally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHOW IT IS MADE: The making process is unique. Wool gets washed, spun, woven, and the wool fabric goes through a process called \"pisoagem,\" where it gets pounded and scalded, similar to felting. In the old days, the final step was letting Burel dry in the sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHOW TO USE: Versatile and durable, this material is perfect for a wide range of creative projects.
