Wool, not carded or combed

In plain English

This category covers wool that has not been carded or combed, distinguishing between shorn wool and other types. The classification separates the material based on its condition, such as whether it is greasy, degreased, or carbonized. Specific distinctions are made for shorn wool versus non-shorn wool within these processed states.
