4Angels

4Angels is a small company in Warszawa, started by mothers, that makes blankets, cocoons and swaddle wraps for babies and young children. Every piece is sewn by hand in Poland, in the brand's own sewing workshop. In that workshop, seamstresses turn the brand's ideas and designs into finished pieces. The blankets pair printed cotton with minky plush of 380 g/m², which 4Angels describes as original American minky, while the cocoons and wraps combine cotton with polyester velvet quilted in Poland. The fillings are hypoallergenic silicone fibre, and 4Angels states that its fabrics and fillings are certified OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 and carry the "Bezpieczny dla Dziecka" (safe for children) mark. 4Angels is based in Warszawa, in Mazowsze. The same region is home to Żyrardów, a town that grew up around a linen factory: production started there in 1833, and the factory became one of the biggest and most advanced in Europe, employing as many as 9,000 workers. Since 2012 its 19th-century factory settlement has been a national Historic Monument (Pomnik historii), as a testimony to the linen industry of the Kingdom of Poland. The brand grew out of mothers looking for original, practical things for their children and sharing what they learned with other mothers. In its collections, 4Angels plays with colour, pattern and new trends, draws on fashion and nature, and keeps children's practical needs in mind, so that each piece is soft to the touch, fun and original. On Tipitam you'll find its baby blankets, swaddle wraps and cocoons.
