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.

From fibre to finished shawl

The quiet luxury of Pashmina.

The source

Fine underfleece is collected from Changthangi goats in Ladakh.

  1. The source. Fine underfleece is collected from Changthangi goats in Ladakh.
  2. Clean & dehair. Dust and coarse guard hairs are removed, leaving the delicate Pashmina fibres.
  3. Spin the yarn. Our Pashmina includes both hand-spun and machine-spun yarn, depending on the shawl.
  4. Handwoven on the loom. The weaver guides the shuttle by hand, interlacing warp and weft to build the cloth.
  5. Hand Tilla embroidery. The woven Pashmina is decorated with Tilla hand embroidery. Some pieces combine Tilla with Sozni needlework.
  6. Wash & finish. The shawl is washed, dried and carefully finished.
  7. The finished shawl. Soft, light and beautifully fluid. A journey of skilled hands, brought together in one shawl.

Kashmiri hand embroidery

Hand Tilla, on pure Pashmina.

The softness and fluid drape of pure Pashmina meet the distinctive finish of Tilla hand embroidery. This Kashmiri tradition is known for its metallic threadwork, bringing definition to borders and motifs.

The collection includes Tilla-only designs and pieces that combine Tilla with Sozni hand embroidery. Each shawl retains its own balance of colour, pattern and handworked detail.

Our Family Archive

A 150-Year Family Legacy

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.

Our Grand Father & his brothers

Peerzada Bashir-Ud-Din

Our grandfather, together with his brothers, carried the family’s work beyond Kashmir. They travelled across India, including Allahabad and Varanasi, introducing Kashmiri craftsmanship to customers far beyond the Valley and building relationships across the country.

Our Father & his brother

Peerzada Naseer Ahmad

Our father and his brother worked alongside our grandfather from the ground up, helping shape every part of the business. They expanded manufacturing, built a strong wholesale presence in the local Kashmiri market, and established the family business as a trusted and respected name in Kashmir.

Fourth Generation

Noumaan & Hamees

Today, the fourth generation carries the family’s work forward through KashmKari. Building on the relationships, craftsmanship and knowledge passed down through our family, we are taking Kashmiri craft directly to customers around the world while continuing to work with artisans here in Kashmir.
