The cashmere in these shawls is a luxurious textile that is woven from the combed hairs of goats from the Changthang area of Ladakh. These goats live long, happy lives tended to by traditional goatherds in their natural habitat. And, as usual, we only have one of each design.
The name cashmere has evolved due to its association with the valley of Kashmir, India, where it has been woven into gorgeous pieces of art for more than five centuries.
Cashmere shawls have long been associated with ultimate luxury. Mughal rulers (16th-18th centuries) not only appreciated these pieces of art personally, but also encouraged the development of the industry. Kashmiri shawls soon caught the attention of the European markets, and became part of elite fashion starting in the late 18th century. The high demand for similar products resulted in the evolution of Europe’s own jacquard and imitation tapestry looms in the 19th century and ironically, led to the decline of the indigenous Pashmina industry of Kashmir. The introduction of the factory produced mixed “Pashmina” in the recent past has further damaged the market for the original Kashmir shawl.
Through our Kashmiri friend Muzaffir, Merchant Campbell is helping to revive the art of weaving and embroidery by employing skilled weavers and embroiderers who work to the highest standards ensuring these shawls are of the most immaculate quality while preserving the craftsmanship; a legacy of rich arts and crafts of the valley of Kashmir.
The work that we have provide these artisans helps thwart the onslaught of fake mass produced products that attempt to pass off as authentic.
