The shawls and scarves you find here are hand-woven on wooden looms in Kathmandu, not produced on industrial machines in factories. The difference is immediate and physical.
Each piece passes through multiple hands before it reaches you. A weaver sets the warp and throws the shuttle. A linker finishes the edges by hand. A dyer matches the color to the original swatch. A finisher checks every thread before folding. The fiber measures under 16 microns. Real pashmina passes through a wedding ring. Most cashmere cannot.
The teams making these pieces have worked together for decades. The skills are not written down. They pass between hands. Shop all cashmere or browse sweaters and cardigans.
