Pashmina wool, also known as cashmere wool world over is the softest, most luxurious and the best wool in the world.

It comes from Himalayan region from a special Himalayan goat (Capra hircus) which lives at the altitude of 12000 to 14000 ft. where temperature goes down up to-10 degree centigrade. The goat is blessed by nature with a unique very thin short inner coat of hair which is the best insulation in the world and this inner coat of hair is PASHMINA. The Himalayan goat is survived because of this nature gifted hair. Pashmina fibre is less than 15 microns in thickness (whereas human hair is 75 microns thick) one Himalayan goat produces 3 to 8 ounces of Pashmina per year.

Origin of Pashmina dates back to ancient civilization and has been traced back to the times of Mahabharat. Earlier in olden days Pashmina shawls found favour with EMPERORS, KINGS, PRINCES, RULERS and NOBLES. This precious fabric was known as FIBRE FOR KINGS.

Now this royal luxury is being offered in wide variety of shawls, stoles and sweaters. These luxuries pashmina shawls are hand woven by traditional weavers whose families have been in the occupation since ages and they inherit this art from their ancestors, and tradition of this art continues from one generation to another generation.
