Pashmina is the finest, softest, warmest, and most elegant wool found in nature. It comes from the underbelly of the Capra Hircus goat in the remote regions of the Himalayas, 14,000 feet above sea level. These goats grow a thin, inner coat of hair that insulates them during the long, harsh winters of the Himalayas. This inner coat is called Pashmina, and the goats are not harmed in the process of producing Pashmina, as it is

collected after being shed naturally in the Spring. There are two types of Pashmina Shawls, those that are 100% Pure Cashmere which are the finest, and the Silk blended Pashmina Shawls which lend a slight sheen to the shawls.
