The Story Of Pashmina Wool Which Became A<br />

Brand<br />

Pashminas have always been unique in their own special way. Coming from a<br />

very significant ancient period they have been a reference for defining status.<br />

‘Mir Sayyid Ali Hamadani’ was known to first discover goats that produced soft<br />

<strong>wool</strong> in the land of Ladakh and present it to the king. It is also believed that he<br />

established the pioneer of <strong>pashmina</strong> industry in Kashmir. Although there are<br />

contradicting stories to this, today out of everything one thing is sure that<br />

Pashmina Shawls have grown to become a brand.<br />

Pashmina in Ancient Period<br />

The journey which started from the<br />

lands of Kashmir grew to reach the<br />

Eastern countries where in no time<br />

they were more than just a wrap to<br />

any women. Prior to any fashionable<br />

changes made, it was also produced<br />

in the form of socks and blankets.<br />

Pure <strong>pashmina</strong> has an extremely<br />

warm nature, it is because of its<br />

thermo conductivity and that is the<br />

reason they have always been<br />

preferred in cold season. Thus, the<br />

warmth and soft, silk nature of these


shawls make it equally important in cold countries like USA and England.<br />

Pashmina in the Modern Culture<br />

The online stores based in the US, are selling <strong>pashmina</strong> wraps, scarves, and<br />

many other products in abundance. As the time evolved, <strong>pashmina</strong> and silk<br />

were blended together, as pure <strong>pashmina</strong>s are too delicate to be preserved in<br />

the modern world. While the fashion industry has always been innovative with<br />

the ideas, there came another evolution in the history of <strong>pashmina</strong> i.e gowns<br />

and dresses, made from this soft woven fabric.<br />

Preserving Tips<br />

The secret tip to preserve the blended <strong>pashmina</strong> products is to soak it in warm<br />

water, wash it with a mild shampoo and let it dry under the sun without<br />

twisting. This will protect the texture of <strong>pashmina</strong> for a long term.<br />

Significance of Quality<br />

Thus, this indicates how western as well as the Indian culture is crazy about<br />

Pashmina. It took the brilliant art of craftsmen to weave, stitch and print<br />

beautiful patterns like aari, sozni, and papier-mache. These beautiful prints are<br />

found on various occasions like an evening party, formal office meeting or<br />

slaying a beach look. Looking upon the significance of <strong>pashmina</strong> always choose<br />

a BBB accredited store which can assure you of the quality of the purchased<br />

product.
