This shawl is simply divine as a pashmina shawl that also offers a certain thickness. The 25% of very fine merino wool blends incredibly well so that one would never suspect that this shawl is not 100% pashmina, yet it gives the shawl some weight.
This is the pashmina shawl par excellence for meditation in cooler environments. This shawl is most comfortable and greatly popular with our friends and customers.
We suggest you protect your pashmina against unnecessary friction by keeping it in a small pouch before putting it in your bag.

Nowadays, the word “pashmina” has become the generic name for a shawl. This is a misnomer and many shawls, both in natural and synthetic fibres, are often touted as pashmina.
Pashmina is the finest fibres available*. This wonder comes from the « Changthangi » goat that lives in the high Himalayan mountains in Ladakh. The goats of this region produce the most beautiful pashmina in the world.
These goats are raised and cared for by semi-nomadic people who must move to allow the flock to forage. They collect pashmina every spring and each goat gives about 3 to 8 ounces of fibre. The fibres of pashmina are only 10 to 14 microns. A micron is 7 to 8 times thinner than human hair.
This regal fibre is luxuriously soft, feather light and surprisingly warm for its weight.

* The Shahtoosh fibre which comes from the Tibetan antelope (Charu), is even finer than pashmina. However, in order for the fibre to be collected the life of the animal must be sacrificed. As a result, this antelope has become an endangered species and it is absolutely forbidden to collect its fibres.

This item (LAKSHMI LIGHT) exceeded my expectations. I have been searching for a replacement for a much loved cashmere shawl I got in India years ago that was lost. I finally found this shawl and anxiously waited for it to arrive. It is perfect...soft, warm and light. Just absolutely beautiful.

Without doubt the most refined and beautiful meditation shawl I have ever owned. Weave is strong and feel is heavenly- straight out of India and was protected well by three layers of wrapping to not only protect the shawl but insure no moisture infiltrated-do yourself a nice turn and wrap your soul in one of these shawls, happy new year,
