Pashmina is wool produced by the mountain goat (botanic name) of the Himalayas. The mountain goat lives above 14500 feet (4500 meters) where temperatures rarely rise above minus 20 degrees in winter. Because living on high altitude the goat need to have a warm winter fur to protect them against the bitter winter cold and to survive the extreme climate only the animals living on high altitude will produce this fine wool. In spring the goats change their winter fur for the lighter summer fur. In spring, the wool is collected by brushing it of the rocks and scrubs and to brush the goats. The wool of the under belly of the goat is used for pashmina. A goat produces about 90 grams of wool per year. One woolen pashmina shawl requires the wool from three goats. There is a difference between cashmere & pashmina wool. Cashmere is defined as any wool under 19 microns thick from the mountain goat lives on low altitude. Pashmina wool has the finest and thinnest fibers and is only 12-14 microns thick. A real pashmina shawl differs from other shawls as for its right outstanding quality. The pashmina shawls are very smooth, fine woolen and have beautiful natural colors. One can pass the whole shawl from a finger ring very smoothly. Several types of pashmina shawls, jacquard with woolen patterns, 100% pashmina wool, semi pashmina with 70-30 pashmina silk & pashmina-angoora wool. A shawl for many occasions and all seasons.
