Crystal Pashminas and Walking Sticks

Pashminas with Crystals  ( and walking sticks )


OVER 100 CRYSTALS

  • This pashmina stole is covered with more than 100 Swarovski Crystals. The crystals are shaped in such a way that they sparkle and catch the light, but they have rounded edges so they do not feel scratchy.

VERSATILE SIZE - 70X200CM (27X80INCHES)

  • Comfort and luxury is what you experience when you open up this stole and wrap it around you. It will keep you cosy from your neck to your waist.
  • This size of pashmina is long enough to be doubled up and pulled through the loop. This creates a smart appearance and also pushes oodles of cosy cashmere and silk up to your ears!
  • If in doubt, go for this size. It will serve you well. Have a browse through the photos to really see the size of this pashmina.

THE FABRIC - 70% CASHMERE / 30% SILK

  • The cashmere fibres themselves come from Inner Mongolia, the border region between China and Mongolia where the cashmere goats roam freely. The happier the goats, the better the yarn. The cashmere fibres in this stole are long and just 14-16 microns in diameter. We regularly test random samples to ensure the quality stays consistently high.
  • The cashmere and silk yarns are blended together to make a 28 count / 2ply yarn containing 70% cashmere and 30% silk. These proportions work very well, so that you get the best balance of the benefits of the silk in terms of appearance and strength, and keep the advantages of the cashmere in terms of the softness and warmth.
  • The silk adds a slight sheen to the fabric. Silk is a stronger fibre, so the fabric can woven slightly tighter than with the pure cashmere. The result is a more dense material which feels soft, but also drapes elegantly.

DYE AND FINISHING

  • Your pashmina stole is finished with hand twisted tassels at both ends.
  • We only use environmentally friendly AZO free Swiss dyes to give your large pashmina scarf it's colour.
  • If the colour or size that you want is not available in stock, we will happily make one especially for you. You are welcome to order your pashmina to be made without tassels. There is no extra charge for the BESPOKE SERVICE.

MADE WITH CARE

We have been working with the same people in Kathmandu (Nepal) since 2002, and your pashmina helps to provide decent long term jobs to over 50 people. 
The factory is located at the edge of Kathmandu in a village area which is gradually being overtaken by the city itself. It still retains it's village charm with some traditional style Nepalese houses.
A large part of the population in that area are Tibetan exiles, so they have bought their culture and personalities to the area as well.
Staff turnover is exceptionally low because it is a nice place to work.
We think your purchase has a positive impact on Nepal, but we want you to buy from us because you will love your new pashmina for its quality, colour and feel.

Canes with Swarovski Elements

We love Swarovski crystals. They make everything so much better. We found some  beautiful crystal canes or walking sticks and you can even have your own design made for you
