KASHMIR PASHMINA

Pashmina is synonymous with Kashmir, hence was called “CASHMERE” when it spread to the west. A luxury fabric woven here since decades, Kashmiri Pashmina is a combination of both material and traditional process developed and refined by Kashmiri artisans to make the fabric of incredible lightness, strength and luster. This process is believed to retain the uniqueness of Pashm – the reason why genuine Pashmina cannot be woven on machines. A morning at the master weaver’s studio understanding the process of Pashmina weaving from the fibers of Pashm that is 1/10th the width of human hair, to spinning gossamer like yarns and weaving finest fabrics known to man is worth a visit.
