Amber gives this Himalayan cashmere scarf a golden warmth, with a soft, fluid drape that lets the color sit gently against the neck. The solid golden tone offers brightness beside gray wool or brown leather, with a supple feel wherever the scarf touches skin. Handloomed in Nepal from 100% Himalayan cashmere, this 79 × 26 inch unisex scarf or wrap offers generous coverage across the shoulders. Dry clean, or hand wash cold and lay flat to dry, to care for the soft cashmere. Pokhara Nepal Artisans works through a nonprofit whose support gives the makers of this amber scarf a route into independent textile work.

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 goats wool to make one scarf!
All of 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 they are treated by their family. The organization further gives back to the disabled community by donating white canes, hearing aids and wheel-chairs, 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 most favorite pieces!
