Doors of Durin Mellon Shawl

Oscha Slings

£110

The Doors of Durin are shown in an effervescent blue against a black backdrop, intended to represent the magical moment when the Sindarin word for 'Friend' (Mellon) is spoken by Gandalf and the gateway is opened to the travellers of the Fellowship, after generations lying closed to the world. This beautiful shawl is woven from 100% organic cotton for a lovely softness and a little cush. This organic cotton shawl is breathable and versatile. This is a Middle Earth collection item, inspired by the Lord of the Rings. Oscha's woven baby carriers are ethically handcrafted in Scotland.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as OSCHA SLINGS LTD, number SC432712. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Stated by the company: "our Scottish workshop, which is 100% solar-powered" Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
