The Pashmina goats on the high altitudes of the
Himalayas, are gifted by nature, an extremely fine inner coat of wool, which is
several times finer than the human hair and extremely soft, in order to bravethe harsh freezing weather. The size of each strand is so small that it can
only be hand woven. This “Pashm’ or wool that is available, if blended, with
silk or cotton can then be spun, by handlooms or machines. The Pashmina Silk
fabric is a blend of two fine materials which together produce a fabric that is
sheer, light and shining. The Kashmiri embroidery or Kashida, as it is known
as, employs bright and colourful designs, with motifs of floral borders, paisley
and chinar leaves and other inspirational settings of nature.The light coloured blue pashmina silk
salwar suit with plain blue pashmina silk kameez has beautiful zardozi
embroidery on its border. The silk salwar is also plain blue with a few zari
strips distributed horizontally. The dupatta is also a sheer blue with zardoziembroidery at the ends. A simple elegant piece, it would suit almost any
occasion for its sheer rich feel.Some people believe
Pashmina from Nepal are the best in quality because of the conditions to which
the mountain goats have adapted over centuries. The high Himalayas of Nepal has
a harsh, cold climate and in order to survive, the mountain goats have
developed exceptionally warm and light fiber which may be slightly coarser and
warmer than cashmere fibers obtained from lower region goats. Nepali pashmina is called ChangraPashmina. But the fact is, Ladakh pashmina is also similar to the Nepali pashmina
as the Ladakhi pashmina is produced in similar high altitudes of chanthan on
the India\China border at Kashmir.
The patterns and the colours chosen, so
harmonize with Nature, that the elegance and allure of the wearer of the salwarkameez is heightened. Pashmina Silk is known for its feel and the spreading
warmth, and it takes a discerning ability to recognize a true Pashmina product,
since the manufacture of synthetic fibres have now come into vogue. There we find very cold temperatures, and
the climate is very supportive to the pashmina producing types of goat. To
survive the freezing environment at 14,000 feet altitude, it grows a unique,
incredibly soft pashm (inner coat) six times finer than human hair. Because it is only 14-19 microns in
diameter, it cannot be spun by machines, so the wool is hand-woven into
cashmere products including shawls, scarves, wraps, throws, stoles etc. for
export worldwide. Pashmina is the name given to it as Iranians came to Kashmir
via the routes of Drass Ladakh, and found it very soft and tough in quality. Pashmina is the word "pashm"meaning wool, so we can compare the Ladakhi pashmina with original Nepali
pashmina. Kashmir pashmina has been famous for centuries due to its quality and
products like plain pashmina, woven jamawars, embroidered pashmina.The beautiful cream and green Pashmina
silk block printed salwar suit has green and black block prints as horizontal
strips. The salwar is green silk with black dots block printed on it. The
chunni is green pashmina silk with black colour dots all over and black colour
block printed line borders. This very charming piece would serve for parties,
weddings, social occasions, festivals and many other occasions.
