Description
This is not a cashmere blend. This is pure Kashmiri pashmina - and the difference is immediate the moment it touches your hands. At 96g for a 196 × 72cm stole, it is almost impossibly light. The drape is unlike anything a blend can replicate.
Pure pashmina fibre comes from the underbelly of the Changthangi goat, found only at altitude in the Himalayan region. The fibre is extraordinarily fine - finer than even the finest cashmere. Weaving it requires a specialist skill that Kashmiri artisan families have maintained for six hundred years. The Ganges founding team visited Kashmir directly and selected this stole from artisan co-operatives. One piece.
Why Pure Pashmina, Not a Blend
-
Featherweight - 96g for a full-size stole. Noticeably, unmistakably lighter than any blend.
-
Exceptional drape - the fineness of the fibre creates a drape that moves differently and photographs differently. It flows with you rather than sitting on you.
-
Pure softness - no merino, no synthetic. What you feel is pure pashmina, undiluted.
-
Soft pink - closer to blush than rose. Universally flattering; pairs with white, ivory, grey, navy and camel.
-
Genuine Kashmir origin - sourced directly from artisan co-operatives in the Kashmir Valley, not Nepal.
- 196 × 72cm. Dry clean only.
Is $699.95 the right price?
Pure Kashmiri pashmina with documented origin sells for $2,000 and above through established luxury houses. The Ganges sources directly - no distributors, no agents, no department store margin between you and the artisan family who made this. $699.95 is not a discount on luxury. It is what luxury costs when it is honestly priced.
