The Pashwrap Hand-Woven Cashmere Scarf is a luxurious product that exemplifies the finest quality of this remarkable fabric. Sourced from the highlands of Ladakh in Kashmir, this extraordinary scarf is a testament to the unparalleled skill and craftsmanship of the Kashmiri artisans who have perfected the art of working with this exceptional fiber over centuries.
Measuring 28 inches wide and 80 inches long, this scarf is woven from 100% Grade A Cashmere, a material known for its exceptional softness, warmth, and lightness. The Cashmere used in this product is harvested from the Chagra, or Cashmere, goats that thrive in the extreme conditions of the Ladakh region, where temperatures can plummet to as low as -50°C. This Cashmere, with a diameter of just 10-14 microns, is far finer than the Cashmere produced anywhere else in the world, which typically ranges from 15-19 microns.
The Pashwrap Cashmere Scarf is the result of a meticulous manufacturing process that begins with the harvesting of the Cashmere fiber in the spring, when the goats naturally shed their inner fleece. The delicate fibers are then hand-spun using traditional spinning wheels, a craft that is rapidly disappearing but one that Pashwrap is committed to preserving. The resulting natural yarn is then expertly hand-woven on traditional wooden looms, using ancestral techniques that have been passed down over generations.
The dyeing process is equally crucial, as it must be carried out with the utmost care to ensure the Cashmere retains its inherent softness and luxurious feel. Pashwrap uses azo-free natural dyes to achieve rich, uniform colors that are resistant to fading or bleeding, further enhancing the product's durability and timeless appeal.
Pashwrap's commitment to ethical and sustainable practices is evident in every aspect of their production process. By sourcing Cashmere directly from the herders in Ladakh and supporting the traditional crafts of hand-spinning and hand-weaving, Pashwrap ensures that their products not only embody the finest quality but also contribute to the preservation of these valuable cultural traditions.
Each Pashwrap Cashmere Scarf is elegantly packaged in a gift box, complete with a booklet that provides detailed care instructions to ensure the longevity of the scarf. Owners are advised to hand-wash the scarf in cold water using a mild detergent, and to store it folded rather than hanging it on a hanger.
Pashwrap's story is one of passion, dedication, and a deep appreciation for the rich heritage of Cashmere production in Kashmir. By offering consumers the opportunity to experience the unparalleled luxury of this exceptional fabric, Pashwrap is not only preserving a centuries-old tradition but also sharing the timeless elegance and beauty of Cashmere with the world.
