– ABOUT CASHMERE –

 

KASHMINA DESIGNS GARMENTS MADE OF 100% PURE CASHMERE.     

Cashmere is the fine undercoat fibres produced by cashmere goats (Capra hircus), an animal living in the Himalayas and mountainous regions of Kashmir, Asia. Due to the extremely cold winters the cashmere goat has developed an undercoat of remarkably thin hair fibres, which acts as an insulator and keeps the animal warm even at extremely low temperatures.

   

Kashmina softest cashmere
  

Pure cashmere garments are unique as cashmere wool fibers are among the most exclusive and finest natural fibers known to man.

PROPERTIES THAT CHARACTERIZE CLOTHES MADE OF 100% CASHMERE IS THAR THEY ARE:

  • Remarkably soft and comfortable to wear

  • Non-itching, as compared to al lot of other natural wool, and it may be worn directly onto bare skin, even for newborn babies. 

  • Warm and insulating when it's cold, whereas during high temperatures and summer the cashmere actually has a cooling effect.

  • Softened even more over time. You may wash your cashmere garment and it gets even softer and more comfortable over time. 

Cashmere is collected during the spring moulting season when the goats naturally shed their winter coat. Everything is done manually, with no machines involved and it's completely harmless to the goats. 
 

Cashmere garments become even softer and more comfortable over the years and is a lovely investment for life.

Kashmina buys only the highest quality white cashmere - from Inner Mongolia. Our wool is tested (tests performed by the National Institute for Consumer Research (SIFO)) – to ensure the high quality. Garments are designed in Norway and produced in Hebei, northern China.
