The Story Behind Nepalese Handwoven Cashmere
31 Aug, 2026
From fine fibre to something you can feel — the patient, wooden-loom process behind our softest pieces.
From Fine Fibre to Something You Can Feel
Cashmere begins as the soft undercoat combed from mountain goats each spring — a fibre so fine it takes several goats' worth to make a single throw.
That fineness is exactly what makes it so warm, and so delicate to work with.
Woven With Patience
Once spun into yarn, cashmere is woven on wooden looms — slowly, so the delicate fibres aren't stressed or broken in the process.
A single throw can take days on the loom before it's ever finished or trimmed.
Why Handmade Makes a Difference
Machine looms tension every thread identically. A hand loom doesn't — and that subtle irregularity is part of what gives handwoven cashmere its particular softness and drape.
It's a difference you feel more than see.
“Softness woven with patience.”
Made for Everyday Comfort
A handwoven cashmere throw isn't meant to sit folded away — it's made to soften over time, exactly the way well-loved things do.
A piece to use, not just to keep.
