Cashmere

L’Origine del Cashmere

the Most Precious Fiber in the World

Cashmere is a noble fiber obtained from the coat of the Hircus goat, raised on the cold highlands of Inner Mongolia. Its soft and warm down, collected in spring when the animal changes its coat, is hand-selected to create a light, silky and naturally insulating yarn.

Thanks to the extreme climate of the region, cashmere from this area is among the purest, most resistant and softest in the world. The result is a fabric that combines comfort, elegance and timeless warmth, ideal for high-quality garments.

Cashmere is ten times warmer than wool.

Inside its fiber there is an air chamber that acts as a thermal insulator and has the exceptional property of thermo-regulating the body with respect to the external environment, protecting it from both low and high temperatures. Furthermore, cashmere fiber is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture, thus allowing the body to breathe perfectly while maintaining a constant temperature.
