Artisan Profile
Nepal/Tibetan Himalayan cashmere is renowned as some of the softest cashmere in the world. Cashmere is extremely light and luxuriously soft yet keeps you extremely warm. Cashmere comes from the softest undercoat of a goat and it takes an average of three goat's wool to make one scarf!
Our cashmere scarves and throws are handloomed in Pokhara Nepal by blind, deaf, or disabled weavers. We partner with a local non-profit organization that provides them with the tools, training, and support necessary to become independent through weaving. In Nepal, the disabled are discriminated against in mainstream society. They have little or no opportunities for work. Weaving allows them to enjoy an independent life, increases their self-esteem, and also improves the way their family treats them. The organization further gives back to the disabled community by donating white canes, hearing aids, and wheelchairs, providing food, medicine, and essential goods for aged-care homes, helping the poor, and distributing relief to earthquake and landslide victims. With such a great cause, these are our favorite pieces!
