Warm beige softens the repeating geometry of herringbone, giving this Himalayan cashmere scarf a tactile richness that stays quietly in balance. The patterned neutral offers more detail than a plain scarf, with a soft fall that makes it easy to wear across the shoulders. Handloomed in Nepal from 100% Himalayan cashmere, this 76 × 29 inch unisex scarf offers length for a loose drape or a comfortable neck loop. When it needs refreshing, dry clean or hand wash cold and lay it flat to dry. The beige herringbone scarf comes from Pokhara's supported handloom practice, where skilled work helps disabled artisans build financial independence. Welcome its understated character into your own way of dressing.

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!
