THE KING OF LUXURY ….
Cashmere and Pashmina are words used for same type of wool. Pashmina is the original word used in Asia specially in India , China, Tibet, Pakistan and Nepal while the western world knows it as CASHMERE .
Pure Cashmere is very soft and very warm . Mangolian Cashmere is considered the best in world due to its long fiber and low micron width . It has the best of properties of an insulating fiber , that includes excellent insulation and bounce. A cashmere stole is very voluminous , full of inter fiber spaces , which are excellent micro environment creaters . As a result of these micro gaps , even a light, thin shawl of cashmere feels much warmer during winters than any other fiber .
Cashmere is dyeable best in Acid colours . Its fiber cuticle nature makes it a natural dirt repellent hence making cashmere products care easier.
HOW CAN CHINA SELL PASHIMNA AT LOW PRICES ??
Cashmere is a huge business in China, Often Yarn manufacturers buy Cashmere at very cheap prices from Tibetian / Mangolian goat rearing nomads and then mix them with fine quality Lambswool and sell it as Pure Cashmere. This not only affects the feel but also the qualities of cashmere . In recent years many chinese mills have been caught doing so.
