The past few decades have witnessed an interest in the shawls or wraps. Earlier used just as a piece of wrap to protect oneself from the biting cold. But today it is also about making a style statement. The word ‘shawl’ comes from the Indo-Persian word shal. This was basically a fine woven woolen fabric people used as a drape. In 1623, the Italian traveler Pietro della Valle observed that the shawl was primarily worn as a girdle. However, in India, people draped it across the shoulders.

The shawls are one of India’s best products. It is unique in that while it offers the intimacy of a warm garment, it leaves you free and unencumbered.

Pashmina - Then and Now

The origins of shawls traces back to the medieval period. But archaeological findings and literary references suggest that the tradition of shawls in India existed right from Indus Valley Civilization.

Even Though these wraps have a rich legacy and speak volumes about their past, today these are wardrobe must-haves. In addition to this, comfy wrap accessories have the power to notch up your style, reflect opulence. Worn during weddings in winter, it is a sight to behold when women turn up in stunning colourful pieces with exquisite embroidery. Besides, experts consider these as great gifts that blend both style and utility in the best manner.

1. Modern Design Pashmina Shawls

Nothing epitomizes the glorious history of Kashmiri craftsmanship as warmly and beautifully as Pashmina. In fact, Pashmina once spelled exclusivity and security for Kashmiri women. It is said that if they fell upon bad days, they cut up a shawl length of Pashmina and sold it to the shawl peddler for cash!

A legacy of the Mughals, the romance of Pashmina reached its zenith when it cast its spell over European royalty. In fact, the great Napolean Bonaparte found the shawl fit to adorn the shoulders of his beloved, Josephine.

Originally in the natural buff, artisans weave Pashminas today in myriad colours and textures. While plain Pashminas have a huge market with the western clientele, craftsmen have introduced a number of modern designs into the art. Now Pashmina shawls aren't just the traditional embroidery ones but come with chic abstracts, stripes, checks, plaids, embellished with French chantilly laces and original Swarovski crystals, exquisite prints, and ombre patterns. These are must-haves for those who love comfort as well as put their style on point.

2. Kani Shawls

In the cold climes of Kashmir, in a village called Kanihama, a chosen few spend their lives weaving a magic spell of warmth and colour. It is indeed the famous Kani shawl. This exquisite wrap was once coveted by Mughal kings, Sikh maharajas, and British aristocrats. Not only this but even the Ain-i-Akbari records that Emperor Akbar was an avid collector of Kani shawls.

Making of a Kani shawl

These warm wraps involve one of the most laborious techniques used in shawl weaving. Numerous kanis (little wooden stick used as spool) or shuttles led with rich coloured threads are moved around even in a single weft line. An intricately designed shawl may use as many as 50 Kanis with different coloured threads and may take several months to complete. To start with, designs are codified on paper, known as talim, and sung out as two weavers work on a shawl together.

3. Embroidered Pashmina Shawls

Embroidered Pashmina shawls look nothing less than pieces of art. The delicate base fibre doesn't allow a thicker version of the same to be used. As such, fine embroidery patterns have to be done by hand, and the result is purely magical.

Three types of hand embroideries are done on Pashmina. The mostly used Sozni Kari uses fine threads and needles to cover the shawls in lovely motifs. Papier Mache embroidery uses brilliant colourful threads for the shawl to spruce up exquisitely. Tilla Dozi is the least use embroidery, as it is heavier on the shawl. Tilla uses metallic threads dipped in gold or silver to make the shawls look regal and the most cherished.

Most of the designs today feature floral motifs or paisleys and add a touch of elegance to the wearer. Historically, this type of Pashmina shawls was a prized possession of the aristocrats. They used to buy woven fabric by the yard and wear it as a shawl or wrap. Undoubtedly, Akbar was one of its most popular patrons.

Locally, these mesmerizing wraps are used as drapes. The ones worn by women are called pattu and those used by men, chandru.

5. Gujarati Shawls

The tangalia weavers in Surendranagar and Chotila, Gujarat, make black and off-white coloured shawls in thick coarse sheep’s wool. A characteristic feature is the use of beads and mirrors. Popular motifs are derived from their immediate surroundings, such as peacocks, camels, trees, and houses. Traditionally, men wear these on special occasions and women wear them as sarongs.

For the grass that you’ve just eaten, oh goat,
Give us some good pashm,
For the water that you’ve just drunk, oh goat,
Give us some good pashm,
Sit down on the grass and be still, oh goat,
So that we can take out your pashm

These lines penned by Monisha Ahmed in her book Pashmina: The Kashmir Shawl and Beyond succinctly summarize the worth and value of a Pashmina goat in the eyes of the herder. Metaphorically, even the world is at the behest of this goat that produces pashm, which is an object de art in the elite circles and rightly so.

What is the above song about?

This song is characteristic of Changpas, who reside in the cold mountains, and are nomadic pastoralists. Changpas are inhabitants of either Tibet or the Changthang region of Ladakh. This vast terrain is scattered with mountains and valleys and is a sight to behold. However, it is desolate and cut off from civilization. For centuries, these men have been herding these prized goats, who run Kashmir’s famed shawl industry.

The Changpas are habituated to extreme temperatures and reside at high altitudes, ranging from 3,600 to 4,500 metres. Here temperatures can easily plummet to minus 50 degrees Celsius. According to estimates, they are not more than 9000.

Though they are commonly referred to as Changpas, don’t assume that they are a single community. Their groups are divided basis their place of origin and each unit has a chief and marked grazing areas. Some accounts suggest that there are 14 such groups residing in Ladakh and these vary from 20 to 176 families.

It is intriguing to know that each of these units has a specific name. For instance, there’s one that’s called Rupshu, which consists of roughly 120 families. While there are some variations, most of them lead the same living and their practices do not differ as such.

A sneak peek into Changpa Life

Though pastoralism is the mainstay for most of them, there are some who are also involved in agriculture and are the owners of some of the highest arable lands in the world. Generally, the livestock comprises sheep, pashmina goats, and at times, yaks. According to official records, in 2007, the number of pashmina goats kept by these Changpa men was about 170,590. These goats were shredded to make handmade Handmade Cashmere Scarf and other Pashmina Products.

Till the 1960s, Ladakh was not in the limelight and it was western Tibet that supplied pashm for the shawl industry in Kashmir. Later, due to conflicts between China and Tibet and greater accessibility to the Indian plains, the trading patterns witnessed a shift. Today, the scenario is completely different, since it is these Changpas, because of whom the industry in Kashmiri land is thriving.

Are Changpas from Tibet?

Since the early days, the Changpas move along with their herds from one grazing pasture to another. There are some accounts that suggest that the Changpas might also be of Tibetan origin, who herded sheep and cattle in eastern Central Asia all the way up to the northwest borders of China.

As far as their origin is concerned, there doesn’t exist much documentation apart from local accounts and folklore. There are several monasteries in Ladakh dotted with wall paintings as well as rock carvings that give out information that the Changthang region was inhabited by hunters and courtly men.

There’s a lot more to tell…

These Changpas follow Tibetan Buddhism and mostly belong to the Drukpa sect. Generally, each family sends their son to become a monk at any of the monasteries in the region. They are supporters of the cosmic structure that are separated into three tiers. The uppermost level is inhabited by the gods, the lowest by spirits of the aquatic and subterranean worlds. Some say that people and animals live between the gods and spirits, which as lore suggests, is also inhabited by demons. There are different colours defined for each set: white for heaven, red for the earth, and blue for the aquatic world.

For the Changpas, their animals are sacred, and they believe that it is God who has showered them with these species. Each flock has some animal representations who are selected for the different colour sets. They are chosen basis their strength and colour. For example, the white animal is dedicated to the gods, the one with a hint of blue to the spirits and brown to the demons.

They aren't just Goats

Among the Changpas, their wealth is defined basis the number of animals they own in their herd. Earlier, they preferred to keep more sheep than goats, since they could barter wool for grains. Gradually, the situation has changed. The Pashmina goats are now considered a symbol of economic prosperity. The yaks were earlier given the highest status, but with their number declining, the spotlight is now on the goats.

As a practice, earlier sheep and yak were offered during religious ceremonies to gods, demons, and spirits. This has changed now, and these goats are held in high regard.

Though the world has changed beyond words, the life of these Changpas remains sheltered till today. They go about their daily work just as a ritual and this is the way they function. Untouched by modernity, little do they know that the world is literally at their feet. No wonder, pashmina is known as the diamond fiber and the herders are as special!

Ever imagined a fabric so fine that wrapping it around you feels warm & luxurious all at the same time? Appropriately known as the “soft gold of Asia” or the “diamond fabric”, Pure Pashmina has been around over more than 5 centuries. From being draped by the European nobility to now being the ultimate fashion accessory, pure Pashmina has gone through a whirlwind of a ride in the last few decades.

There’s a flood of fast fashion today and most brands have jumped on to this bandwagon. The focus is much more on variety than the quality aspect and some of the biggest names are feeding this trend. Even when it comes to Pashmina, most brands are selling “affordable handmade cashmere wraps” in the name of machine-made and blended varieties. Since Pashmina is regal and a symbol of opulence, consumers go in for such tall claims. But they later pay a heavy price for their choices and realize their lack of awareness.

So we propagate sustainable luxury through all our offerings. Each of our products is painstakingly hand-crafted and hand-embroidered by the gifted artisans of the land of Kashmir. It might baffle you that some of the most exquisite designs take several years to create. Hence, it is no child’s play. Our portfolio of products showcases the rich legacy of this art as narrated by the Kashmiri weavers, seekers, and keepers of pure Pashmina.

Weaving a pure Pashmina is a labour of love. It is a process that requires high levels of patience and perseverance. Centuries ago, it was the Kashmiri herders who discovered the soft under-fleece of the Changthangi or Capra hircus goats. Interestingly, these goats grow this dense fibre to keep themselves warm in the cold climes of Ladakh. During spring, the herders comb this hair or collect it when they shed this undercoat to make some of the most opulent masterpieces ever heard of. The ethereal beauty of the land reflects in every single piece that tells stories; the stories of blood, sweat and toil. You’ve got to see it to believe it!

Light, soft and warm, Pashmina is world-famous but the process of creating it is long and tedious

Gulzar Hussain

There is a land far away from the noise of civilization, where biting, chilly winds make their headway. It is much like the Arctic wastes of Siberia and Alaska. These are the highlands of Kashmir. Here resident mammals reside and spend their lives in the harsh weather. Thanks to their natural hair that shelters them like a warm cocoon and warms up humans as pashmina wraps made from this luxurious pashm fibre.

Be it goats, antelopes, camels, or yaks, these animals grow an undercoat that is coarse but superfine. At the same time, it also protects them from plummeting temperatures as low as -40 degrees Celsius. These dark, winter days soon turn into long and pleasant environs. With the onset of spring, the temperatures rise, and the days lengthen. This triggers hormonal changes in these animals and they start to gradually shed this undercoat, which now doesn’t really serve any purpose.

The luxurious fibers that are procured from these undercoats are collected and combed out by local communities. These are generally recycled by them for their own use. Several species have been domesticated for time immemorial and harvested sustainably for local use.

Of all these animal fibres, it is Pashm that is the most famous, which is internationally known as Cashmere. In India, the fleece of the Tibetan goat, from which the classic Kashmir shawl is woven, is called pashm and is derived from an Urdu word that means raw fibre. However, Pashmina is the yarn spun and the material that is woven from pashm.

The Prized Pashmina Goat of Ladakh

The earliest animal to be domesticated for human needs, in fact as long as tens of thousands of years are goats. These animals primarily provided for milk and meat, essential for survival in this desolate land. Almost all goats, be it wild or domestic, grow a downy undercoat which is hidden beneath their shaggy overcoats. Only a few breeds are habituated to this extreme cold and produce this ‘soft gold’ that is worth harvesting. There are certain regions, apart from Kashmir in India that propagate the growth of this fibre. And that includes parts of Russia, China, and Mongolia.

The stunning land of Ladakh had long been cut off from all kinds of civilization. But little did the world know that this would be the home of the prized Tibetan or Changthangi goat, who has taken the world by storm with its diamond fibre. The herdsmen who raise it locally call it changra or the Pashmina goat. It is the fibre of this Pashmina goat that is considered par excellence and has assumed the name of cashmere all over the globe.

Emergence of Cashmere

For millennia, nomadic herdsmen have spun and woven goat hair into cloth for their personal use. In fact, several historical accounts recount that fine materials were woven from goat fleece in India and West Asia in ancient and medieval times. Even though the origin was not much known. From at least the 16^th century until the early 19th, Kashmir was the only region where the locals had the skills to fully utilize the qualities of pashm. This means not just its warmth and fineness, but also to weave the fibre into a textile of superlative quality became an object of desire for nobility as well as the social elites.

From the third decade of the 1900s, cashmere emerged as a premium fibre. It was known for the highest quality of woven fabrics in the developed world. This led to the production in staggering volumes of Pashmina wool and later led to selective breeding. This led to evidence that both genetic as well as environmental factors lead to the growth of the undercoat, which did raise the possibility of producing this fibre in temperate climates.

How Cashmere whispers tales of quality

Textile fibre is generally judged as two distinctive factors. Firstly the fineness and secondly, its length and both together reflect the quality of a finished product. At times, colour is also considered significant. For the sake of information, fibre diameter is measured by the micron, which is 1/1000 of a millimetre. It is intriguing to know that the micron count for pashm or Pashmina wool somewhere falls between 13 and 19, while a human hair is close to 70 microns. Can you now imagine the fineness of this fibre?  When these fine fibres are spun, a range of air pocket forms, which is what lends it an extraordinary warmth and finesse.

For the artisans of Kashmir, it is believed that the length of the fibre is dependent on the extremity of harsh conditions the Pashmina goat withstands. This is the reason why earlier the goats from western Tibet were preferred.

As far as the colour of Pashmina goes, it is the colour white that is desired by most since it can be dyed in a barrage of shades. For this reason, these breeds commonly produce white fibre. The browns and grey, which are also a part of the palette of natural colours, are considered self-coloured. These form the mainstay of most antique and contemporary Pashminas.

Two decades ago, Pashmina was the ubiquitous choice of most elites. But no one knew that there would be unscrupulous counterfeiting and fake Pashminas in the market. As with any other fashion piece, whenever there is mass churning of a product, those who are conscious of their fashion choices would not like to buy it. That's because there would be far too many pieces of the same kind. This art of the royals is precious. We understand that, which is why we have unique pieces that you will only find on Pashmina.com. These handwoven, handcrafted wraps made from pure Himalayan Cashmere are the epitome of authenticity and sheer luxury. And believe us, just buying a single product wouldn’t satiate your appetite!

What are Pashmina scarves made of?

It is really important to answer this question "What is a Pashmina scarf made of", as it has created mass confusion among the admirers of pure Pashmina scarves. Pashmina scarves are made of Cashmere wool which is sourced from Ladakh. Here an exotic rare goat grows Cashmere over its underbelly to survive freezing cold. This Wool is naturally gotten rid of in summers by the goat. It is later cleaned, spun, woven, and handcrafted into luxury Pashmina scarves, shawls, and other wrap accessories. 

But before, you spend those bucks on buying a Pashmina, it’s best you understand how to identify a genuine one. However, the question is

"How to check the original Pashmina?"

There are certain properties of a Pashmina that help you to check the original Pashmina scarf which is authentic and real, and not fake. How to know real Pashmina can be a challenge, but only if you follow these, you will be saved from owning a fake piece. Pure Pashmina scarves are also called 100 Pashmina, owing to them being 100% pure. Here is a list of some features of a 100 Pashmina scarf.

1. A 100% original Pashmina scarf is soft

This is the first and the most basic way to identify pure Cashmere. So, in case your luxury wrap doesn’t feel as soft and itches once you wrap it, you’ve got your hands on a fake one! This is because Pashmina is a hypoallergenic fibre, which does not cause any allergic reaction. It is generally smooth and soft as butter, because it is made up of fibres of fine diameter. Besides, it is not straight and bumpy, which means the fibres stick to themselves but do not stick out at all.

2. A 100% genuine Pashmina scarf will carry a label

Your luxury wrap, if it’s genuine, is likely to have a label calling it out. There are times that it may have one and yet lack authenticity. But in case there isn’t at all, that should raise a red flag. At Pashmina.com, we are ahead of the curve. We understand how our customers deserve the quality and authenticity they invest in. So each of our pieces comes with a quality assurance certificate from the Crafts Development Institute, Government of India.

3. A 100% genuine Pashmina scarf is not transparent

Hold the luxury Cashmere under a light. If it’s transparent, then it’s not real Pashmina, because it does not transmit light. Besides, it isn’t shiny at all, so that’s another catch for you to notice. Check out these amazing Real Pashmina Shawls Prices.

4. Genuine Pashmina is uneven

You certainly need to get even with a seller, if he’s sold you fake Pashmina for the price you paid. Jokes apart, the texture of your Pashmina will only be even if it’s machine-made or a mixed blend instead of a pure one. A 100 Pashmina scarf that has been painstakingly handcrafted will show some form of irregularities since it’s done by hand. At Pashmina.com, our artisans painstakingly work for days and months to create a masterpiece that’s fine and accentuates your personality and your outfit.

5. Original Pashmina won't generate static electricity

This might sound odd to you, but it’s the right step! When you rub the fabric, you will know what the animal fibres are made up of. Synthetic fibres like acrylic and polyester when rubbed together generate massive static electricity as well as little sparks. In the case of Pashmina, none of this happens, so you’d have your proof right there!

6. Original Pashmina will Pill

This is another test you must not miss. Pashmina is an animal fibre and is likely to pill, however much you try. Pilling can be reduced to an extent but won’t completely go. If you don’t spot any pilling, it means that there is some synthetic mixed.

The test involves burning a tiny fringe of a Pashmina to check if it’s genuine. You need to be really careful while doing this as you wouldn't want to burn down that precious piece. Once you lit up that scrap, notice how it smells and looks. A 100 Pashmina scarf will leave a burnt hair smell and there’ll be some powdery residue behind. If it’s a synthetic fibre, you may smell burnt leaves and it will burn more brightly and leave a small bump behind.

7. 100% genuine Pashmina scarf gives a burnt smell

These are some of the most common and simple ways to know if your Pashmina is a genuine one. These are mostly fail-proof and help in buying the right Pashmina and prevent you from getting fleeced. Phew! Not only is there pain of having lost your money, but it also turns you against such beautiful works of art because of an unpleasant shopping experience.

How to tell if Pashmina is real or fake?

If you already own a Pashmina and doubt whether you have invested in a real or fake Pashmina, here at some at-home tests that can prove the originality of your scarf.

Burn Test

1. Pick a thread of your Pashmina scarf from the fringes. This should be enough for the burn test.

2. Place this thread on a surface, and burn it.

3. Carefully smell the burnt thread, as well as touch the ashes with your fingers.

4. If you smell a burnt hair smell and if the ashes turn to powder, your scarf has a higher chance of being original. Pashmina scarves are made from natural hair and hence give the same odour.

5. Post this process, and check on the burnt Pashmina thread again. If it has acquired a matte appearance, there is a greater chance of it being original.

Rubbing Test

1. Take a corner of the scarf, and rub it against its own surface
2. If your Pashmina is fake, it will produce static electricity. That is what polyester fabric does.
3. Fake Pashminas which generate electricity will even attract dust particles towards themselves.

Shine Test

1. Check the surface of your Pashmina scarf
2. If the appearance is too much shiny, chances are that this piece is fake.
3. Pashmina scarves are made from natural fibre, and hence have a matte appearance.

What is Faux Pashmina?

While a number of fake Pashmina copies have filled up markets, a category of the same is faux Pashmina. But what is Faux Pashmina? Let's find out

When commoners could not afford Pashmina scarves, traders started to manufacture false Pashmina scarves, calling it by different names. One such type is faux Pashmina scarves. These are cheap scarves, which are made of synthetic fibre like viscose. These are super soft and plush like a Pashmina scarf, but are one of the fake variants which just feel like Pashmina.

Since time immemorial, Kashmir has been referred to as the cradle of several crafts. According to Kashmir ruler, Mirza Haider Dughlat, “in Kashmir, one meets with all those arts and crafts which are in most cities uncommon.” French physician & traveller, Francis Bernier, who visited Kashmir in 1665, believed that “it is due to special properties of water available there.”

The Dogra period (1846-1885) witnessed the sharp rise of certain crafts that reached their climax. In the words of H.W.Bellew who visited Kashmir sometime in 1873, praised the artisans of Kashmir, their Kashmiri shawls and embroideries. Also, silver work, paper mache paintings, stone engraving & wood carving all exhibited work of wonderful delicacy & minute details. In fact, this was reiterated by Lawrence, a settlement officer in Kashmir in 1889. He said, “Every Kashmiri is a weaver and the home spun cloth woven by the villagers was highly appreciated by many Europeans.” It was actually during this period that the Kashmiri shawl making employed a large number of people, which in turn generated revenue for the state.

The “Royal” identity of Kashmiri shawl

Kashmiri shawl manufacturing has its roots in the picturesque state of Jammu and Kashmir. Here the air is crisp and art runs in the veins of its people. In the 1800's, the Kashmiri shawl was considered a symbol of imperial prestige. Infact no fashionable woman’s wardrobe was complete without this luxurious piece. It enjoyed name and fame across the world, owing to its softness, warmth, brilliance of colours and sublime fineness.

Under the Mughals, shawl making made several strides, with karkhanas creating new social groups among its craftsmen. In the text Tuzk-i-Jahangiri, Emperor Jahangir expresses fondness for Pashmina shawl and calls it one of his “favourite items.” It was considered a status symbol in the Empire and was gifted as part of imperial festivals.

In the Afghan period, shawl making grew further and in 1796, these Kashmiri shawls were sent to Europe. These objects of desire reached Napolean during the Egyptian campaign, who then gifted it to his wife Empress Josephine. At that time, many French soldiers returned with plundered Pashmina shawls worn as belts over their uniforms. It became severely popular in Europe and as the demand rose, merchants traveled all the way to Kashmir to purchase them.

Sikh Period and Kashmiri Shawl Trade

During the Sikh period, shawl making continued to receive consistent patronage. Now it became fashionable even in Punjab and also popular in Lahore. During the reign of the last two Sikh rulers, the Kashmiri shawl manufacturing witnessed a decline from 1841-45. This was also due to some political disturbances in the region.

When Gulab Singh became the Maharaja of Kashmir, the shawl trade began to revive. In 1846, the total number of looms reached 7,000 with 17,000 weavers working at that time. The same year, there were 3,500 karkhandars in the Valley. However, in 1847, several shawl weavers migrated to Punjab and the number of looms reduced.

Compensation to Weavers

In early 1847, the weavers put out certain demands. These were early enumeration of workers, reduction of nazarana , fixing length of a work day, & framing proper regulations for their welfare. More than 4,000 weavers migrated to Lahore and this worried Gulab Singh. He announced the following regulations:

• The salary was fixed at four annas
• Taxes were reduced
• The weaver was allowed to change his master and was no longer restricted to work under one
• The tax would be levied on woven shawls as per the market price
• Weavers would be paid on the basis of actual work on the loom

Though these regulations pacified the weavers, but only for a short while.

Later, in the 1950s, French agents came all the way to Kashmir to deal with the manufacturers. This way, Kashmiri shawls became more popular in Europe and trade flourished. According to a Frenchman Larouosse, “In spite of heavy duty levied by the French government, whatever its value, the trade flourished.”

Flourishing of Kashmiri Shawl in Europe & Invention of Do Rukha

In 1850, the annual shawl production reached Rs 40 to 50 lakhs and there were about 40,000 to 50,000 workers engaged in the manufacturing. During the second half of the 19^th-century, it became a coveted fashion item in England, France and America. It was during this time that Kashmiri shawls became prestigious and the favourite of elites and nobles.

In the concluding year of Maharaja Gulab Singh’s reign, there were about 8,000 shops of shawl weavers in Kashmir. Post his reign, Maharaja Ranbir Singh tried to bring about reforms to further provide an impetus to the manufactory. During this juncture, a new type of shawl called dorukha was manufactured in the Valley. They were excellent in texture, soft, colourful and were most celebrated. Among countries across the world, it was France that shared 80% of shawl trade between Kashmir and Europe.

What are Kashmiri Shawls made of?

The manufacturing of the shawl happens from what is called pashm. It was obtained from a goat found in western Tibet, Baltistan and Ladakh. It was brought to Kashmir via Ladakh. The pashm fibre is first removed by combing. During winter, it is a protective layer of soft fleece that provides insulation to the goats in the biting cold. The Changpas say that only when the winter comes to an end and the goat eats the first new grass that the pashm rises above the surface of the goat’s body. It can then be combed out.

The pashm that is combed out is not really clean and has dirt and bodily secretions. The women who sift through this raw mixture say that only 35% of this pure fibre can be used. Once the hair is combed, the animal’s shaggy coat is then cut with metal shears. A few goats are combed at the same time, generally before they head out to their pasture lands. They may be again combed in the evening, only if there’s adequate light by the time they return after grazing.

This is a painstaking process. Starting from sourcing the fleece to crafting products from Himalayan cashmere is a long tough journey. It takes months and years for the gifted artisans of Kashmir to create the masterpiece Pashmina shawls. It is a sorry state of affairs when imitation pieces flood the market. This dilutes the labour of these weavers, who shed all their blood, sweat and tears to this "Art of the Royals”.
