About Us

 

“Designed in New York
Made by hand in Mongolia”

Sean McNanney is a Brooklyn based artist, designer and the founder of SAVED NY. He realized his dream of creating a line of luxury blankets with the introduction of his first collection in 2015 after working for Ralph Lauren Home. Since that time, SAVED has grown exponentially, expanding from cashmere soft goods for the home to a fashion line including multiple collaborations with artists and designers around the globe. Along with Sean’s passion for design is his belief that he can create a quality product using sustainable materials and following fair trade practices. He has great reverence for the traditions of Mongolian nomadic culture and works closely with the people involved: from the herders to the artisans.

The SAVED collection is a unique marriage of old-world craftsmanship and modern sensibility. Sean’s designs are influenced by a lifetime of collecting objects, textiles and ephemera from around the world. His individual style has caught the attention of the design world and fashion glitterati. Each item is hand-crafted in fine, sustainably sourced Mongolian Cashmere, Camelhair and Yak Down. Designed to be an instant heirloom, loyal and lasting - A Warm Friend.

 
 

A WARM FRIEND

CASHMERE

Mongolian cashmere is a celebrated luxury fiber unique to the complex and dramatic landscape from which it comes. Like the Yak, the Hircus Goat grows a fine, warm and lightweight undercoat beneath its coarser hair in order to survive the colder seasons of its hostile home environment. Once a year, in Spring, nomadic goat herders harvest the fleece not by shearing but by gently combing the animals and carrying on a tradition of producing some of the finest Cashmere the world has to offer.

YAK DOWN

Yaks have been a vital and revered part of the Mongolian nomadic household for hundreds of years. An exceptional creature, the Yak survives the extreme steppe terrain and harsh Mongolian winters by producing a cashmere-like downy layer to it's skin. Shed in the summer months, herders harmlessly collect the soft fiber by combing the animal.  Naturally hypoallergenic, Yak down is emerging on the luxury textile market and is an excellent choice for sensitive skin.

CAMEL HAIR

The Mongolian nomad has a special appreciation for the, at times ornery, two-humped Bactrian camel. Few species can survive the blistering heat and brutal cold these animals do across the Gobi desert mountains, dunes and broad plains. Once again, survival dictates the creation of special insulation, a soft fine underlayer of hair.  Shed throughout late Spring and early Summer, durable and lustrous camel hair wool is still collected the traditional way, hand-gathered by nomadic herders sweeping over the land.
