Pure Pashmina

Before the shawl, the fibre.

Pashmina begins with the fine, insulating undercoat of Changthangi goats from Ladakh’s high-altitude plateaus. Its softness, lightness and warmth make it one of the world’s most prized natural fibres.

Soft
An exceptionally gentle touch.
Light
A fluid, graceful drape.
Warm
Natural warmth without bulk.

Kashmiri hand embroidery

Sozni, embroidered by hand.

Sozni is the fine needle embroidery of Kashmir. Working entirely by hand, an artisan guides a needle through the woven Pashmina, building delicate flowers, leaves and paisleys one stitch at a time.

The detail comes from the fineness and placement of each stitch. Dense, closely worked designs take longer to embroider, with more time spent on every small motif.

Watch the needlework up close. Each small movement becomes part of the finished design.

A 150-Year Family Legacy

THE KASHMKARI CHRONICLE

150 years ago, our great-grandfather began a legacy.

From the family photographs

Our great-grandfather

Peerzada Saif-Ud-Din

Our great-grandfather began working with Kashmir’s master craftsmen around 150 years ago, beginning a family relationship with Kashmiri craft that continues to this day.

KASHMIR · FOUR GENERATIONS

#kk-manuscript-template--28260498440467__timeline_qc7NQW .kkm2-generations{display:none}

Peerzada Bashir-Ud-Din

Our grandfather and his brothers carried the family’s work beyond Kashmir. Travelling across India, including Allahabad and Varanasi, they introduced Kashmiri craftsmanship to customers far beyond the Valley.

Peerzada Naseer Ahmad

Working alongside our grandfather, our father and his brother helped shape every part of the business. They expanded manufacturing and built a strong wholesale presence in the local Kashmiri market.

Noumaan & Hamees

Today, we carry the family’s work forward through KashmKari—bringing Kashmiri craft directly to customers around the world, while continuing to work with artisans here in Kashmir.
