Which is better, pashmina or cashmere? 2025-10-27
By Imfield Cashmere — The Standard of Sustainable Luxury Both pashmina and cashmere are symbols of timeless luxury, yet they differ in origin, texture, and purpose. Pashmina comes from the rare Changthangi goat of Ladakh, producing ultra-fine fibers (12–15 microns) handwoven into delicate shawls — prized for their ethereal softness and cultural heritage.
