The company prides itself in guaranteeing that all its products are the genuine article, Chinese silk blended with cashmere wool, to create a beautiful soft pashmina, no inferior fabrics or man made fibres here.

What is a pashmina?

Well the term ‘Pashmina’ actually refers to a type of soft, warm and luxurious cashmere wool from the underbelly of the Himalayan Mountain Goat. Pashmina comes from Pashm, the Persian word for “wool”.

Over the years the term “pashmina scarf/shawl” has been pared down to just “pashmina”, so pashmina is quite often used refer to any garment made of a blend of cashmere and silk.

Pashmina International sell a wonderful range of Single colour cashmere pashminas and Twin colour cashmere pashminas all of which are 70% pure cashmere wool and 30% genuine Chinese silk blend and they are a large shawl size, at 27″x72″ (68 x 180cm), these pashminas are delicately woven-in chenille pattern single ply, with thin tasseled ends.

If its something a little more luxurious you are after check out the Rich weave 45% silk pashminas in the same generous size the 55% cashmere content keeps it warm and cosy.

What I just adore about the pashmina is what a versatile addition to my wardrobe it is, the pashmina can be worn as a scarf, a stole, a shawl, and belt or sarong style, or take two contrasting colours and wear your pashmina Hollywood style. Whatever method you choose and whatever you choose to wear the pashmina with it is a quick and easy way of creating a chic fashionable look.
