Product Information

Cashmere wool is collected during mid spring when goats tend to shed it naturally. It starts from March end to May. During this time, hormonal changes in the animal forces it to shed the wool, and the goat rubs itself with rough surfaces to get rid of some portion of this warm fleece. The animal is ethically treated and wool is combed off its body with specialized tools and combs by professionals. When the entire wool is collected, it is sorted as per finesse. Pure Cashmere is later separated from guard hair and processed further. The name “cashmere” originates from the region of Kashmir in northern India where the Changthangi Goat , more commonly known as the Pashmina Goat or Kashmir Goat , is native to Ladakh and Kashmir and has been bred, usually nomadically, on the roof of the world for many hundreds of years. There are now numerous breeds of cashmere goat , and many are bred in China, Australia, Mongolia, and Tibet, but those which grow the finest cashmere wool (12-13 microns diameter) mostly live at over 4,000 metres (2½ miles) above sea level, where the temperatures range from a toasty +35℃/95℉ down to a bitter -20℃/-31℉ (although in a fresh breeze this would feel like -32℃/-26℉). Our huge range of superb quality pashminas and cashmere wool scarves have all been created in Nepal, Mongolia, or India, in every conceivable colourway.

Cashmere is found grown on the underbelly of Ladakhi goat, because of which it survive one of the most harsh winter ever. The temperature in Changthang area reaches -40 degrees and was it not for Cashmere, the goat would probably not survive. As winter starts to end and summer starts to arrive, the goats too shed this wool naturally. Herders realize that the warm wool is making the goat uneasy as it continuously rubs itself to get rid of the wool. Professionals with specialized tools and techniques are called and they help comb the wool off the body of the goat. It relieves the goat of this burden and they are now free to graze around the plateau. This happens late March to May, and the shawls are put to sale at the start of September. Cashmere production is not cruel to the goat. In fact the wool itself is lost naturally by the goat as soon as its summer. Hence the use is ethical and no living being is harmed in the entire process. Cotton: Classic and easy, cotton is a staple for its durability, breathability and light breeziness.
