The grace of every fashion conscious woman..
Ladies of the 18th century court. in France and St. Petersburg, as well as Mughal Emperors were
enchanted by the regal texture and warmth of Cashmere Pashmina. Napoleon may have started the
fashion craze when he presented a Cashmere Pashmina shawl to his wife.
Pashmina scarves, stoles, wraps, shawls and throws remain an essential part of a fashionable wardrobe, attesting to the durability and
appeal of this classic accessory.
A unique quality of Cashmere Pashmina is that it becomes softer with each use, making it more gentle on the
skin. These precious jewels last a lifetime, and have been handed down from generation to
generation in royal and wealthy families throughout the world.
Cashmere Pashmina, also known as the "diamond fiber" and the "soft gold of high Asia", is the finest, softest and warmest wool
known to mankind. It comes from the underbelly of the Capra
Hircus goat, in the remote regions of the Himalayas, 14,000 feet above sea level. These
goats grow a thin, inner coat of hair that insulates them during the long, harsh winters of the
Himalayas. This inner coat is used to make Cashmere Pashmina Wraps/Shawls.
These goats are raised by semi-nomadic herdsmen and are not harmed in the process of making pashmina scarves, stoles, wraps, shawls and throws, as the fibre is collected after
being shed naturally. This is unlike the process of producing Shahtoosh the sale and purchase of which is prohibited by law, in which the Tibetan
antelopes are killed.
