The Product

The product for which
CHEN RESIK has developed an expertise is Pashmina. The question that may be asked is what
exactly is Pashmina? Pashmina is one of the softest forms of wool found in nature. It is
obtained from the underbelly of the Himalayan goat, which resides above 10,000 feet (about 3050 meters). |

The finest of all wools comes from the underbelly of the Capra Hircus goat, reared in
remote regions of the Himalayas. Moghal Emperors, 18th century ladies in France
and St. Petersburg in the gentle softness and regal texture of Pashmina. The shawls made
from this wool were as precious as jewels and transmitted from generation to generation.
Mode of Manufacture
Pashmina shawls, scarf or blanket is hand-woven from
Pashmina yarns either with silk warp or Pashmina warp by local craftsmen who have managed
to keep this indigenous craft alive since 100 years back. The entire process (i.e.

manufacturing Pashmina shawl is by hand only in the traditional method.
