We just tested our cashmere and it's 100% !


Click to enlarge.

We have just sent a pashmina for testing at SGS fibre testing labs. The result shows it is pure cashmere. This is the usual result, so it's not so exciting.

However, it is good to know, because there is a lot of cheating in the cashmere industry ... even Tescos got in trouble once for unknowingly having 7% rabbit hair mixed in !

If you are buying cashmere online, ask to see a copy of a test certificate. A good supplier (like Mypashmina!) will be happy to show you.
