Natural and Precious Elegance

This hand-embroidered black pashmina captivates with its understated elegance and refinement. Its natural hue highlights the delicate embroidery, while the cashmere envelops you in remarkable softness and pleasant warmth in all seasons.

A Rare and Precious Wool

The wool comes from semi-nomadic goats in the high plateaus of the Himalayas, raised in demanding climatic conditions that contribute to the exceptional fineness of their fleece. With use, pashmina becomes even more supple and soft, offering increasing comfort over time.

A Fiber of Great Fineness

Pashmina is renowned for the delicacy of its fibers, taken from the neck and beard area of the goats, where they are finest. This rare material combines warmth and lightness, making pashmina one of the most beautiful wools in the world.

Ancient Craftsmanship

Each shawl is handmade by an artisan, thread by thread, on a traditional loom specific to the Kashmir region. Several days of work and the wool of several goats are required to create a single piece. Each pashmina is unique and bears witness to craftsmanship passed down through generations.

The Stages of Traditional Embroidery

The creation of an embroidered pashmina follows several meticulous steps:

1. Motif selection: A finely carved wooden block is selected to transfer the design onto the shawl. Each motif requires a specific block, chosen from many models made by master carvers.

2. Shawl stamping: The artisan delicately applies the inked block onto the fabric to outline the base of the motif, with precision and regularity.

3. Hand embroidery: The shawl is then entrusted to embroiderers, who use silk threads to embellish the design. Each stitch is made by hand, resulting in a luminous, refined, and unique finish.
