How Pashmina is perfected



Over 400 years ago, the Persian Mughals visited Kashmir and were delighted to witness the nature's bounty and inhabitants of Kashmir. The beautifully woven Shawls stole their heart and they named it Pashmina. It means 'Wool' in Persian language.

     This shawl is hand spun in the same way as it has been going on for the centuries ago. It is woven from the soft, fine wool sheared from the neck and belly of the Himalayan goat called Hircus, which lives at high altitudes. The Pashmina is hand-gathered, de-haired, stored and combed by nomadic herders. Each Shawl is hand woven on handlooms over a silk wrap to strengthen the fabric. Each piece is then dyed in an open vat individually. Embroidery, printing, etc. are done by hand.
 Over the past few decades our company Kashmir American Enterprises has carved out a niche for itself as a quality Pashmina Shawls supplier in export markets of Europe, Italy, France, Switzerland, UAE, etc. at very attractive prices. Our products are also much in demand across the domestic market. It invites trade inquiries from all the concerned parties who wish to deal in the business categories our company deals in. We assure timely delivery and quality service to all our customers.
