Solid Baby Pink Cashmere Stole

An exotic breed from the Changthangi area of Ladakh, the Angora Goat is known for its ability to naturally shed the most finest wool to create the luxurious Cashmeres, fetching significant value worldwide.

The timeless legacy of Pashmina began when the great Sufi Muslim saint, Mir Ali Hamadani, set out on an exploration of Ladakh and unearthed the wool produced by Angora goats.

Beauty emerges as spring arrives. Changthangi Goats tenderly rub against rocks and shrubs, naturally shedding their short-haired fleece.The wool is then gathered and processed to fashion an opulent range of Cashmere wraps.

The wool, gathered into small balls, undergoes the spinning process. A traditional spinning wheel, locally referred to as 'Yender,' plays a significant role in making the exquisite and delicate Pashm threads.

"Tulun" is the post-spinning stage, where the yarn is submerged in rice water, referred to as "Maaye," to enhance its durability. The treated yarn undergoes drying before being wound onto traditional wooden spindles called "Prech" in the native Kashmiri language.

Pashmina yarn is wound around iron rods in a process called 'Yarun.' The wrap then undergoes dressing, known as 'Bharun,' overseen by a craftsman called the 'Bharungur' or 'Wrap-Dresser.' This process entails stretching and securing the yarn within the loom called 'saaz'.

The yarn is wound onto a small flange bobbin using a Parota. The weaver applies Saresh adhesive to the yarn in hank form, enhancing its durability and weavability. Finally, the yarn is mounted onto a handloom, where craftsmen known locally as 'Wovur' transform it into various luxurious wraps.
