Newenia, a collection of luxury cashmere, merino, and silk blends designed to elevate your senses and delight you with a winter-ready color palette fit for a Queen or King! Each blend was inspired by an aspect of the world of Narnia. Learn about each one below. Call or email us to collect all 4 shades while supplies last.
Tree of Youth (Silver with Sparkle): A magical tree bearing inexpressibly beautiful silver apples with a divine, breathtaking, mesmerizing, and almost irresistible scent. Even sunlight fades in the bright light they cast.
Wood Between the Worlds (Green): A mysterious forest realm of supposed water portals that allow magical travel between the worlds of Charn, Earth, Narnia, and numerous others. In order to travel through one must be touching one of the yellow or green magical rings.
My Dear Lucy (Purple): The granddaughter of C.S. Lewis who is the inspiration behind ‘The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe’. You’re never too old to enjoy a good fairy tale.
One True King (Gold with Sparkle): The creator and King of Narnia, Aslan, is a representation of all that is good. He appears to be a large and terrifying, but equally magnificent and wise, lion with kind eyes. He watches over Narnia and protects it from various evils.
