The appeal of Pashmina is unrivaled. This spectacular shawl, dyed by the darkness of Kashmir's night skis, is a great example of oriental charm. Derived from the Persian word “Pashum” for softness, pashmina yarn is spun from the naturally depigmented hair of Tibetan and Ladakh's native Changra goats.
The skills required to use such carefully selected yarns (dyeing, weaving, embroidery with various techniques, etc.) are handed down to the local Kashmir craftsmen of the previous generation. Zoom in on this shawl's gorgeous paisley to understand the intricacies of ancient embroidery techniques.
