Pure cashmere
Weight decides everything
Duvet, no jar
The goat has two coats: on the outside the guard hair, long and coarse; underneath the duvet, a very fine down. Only the duvet becomes cashmere, and separating it well is what distinguishes a garment that caresses from one that pricks.
A goat, a comb, two hundred grams
Cashmere goats live on the high plateaus of Central Asia, where the temperature drops well below freezing in winter. To survive, they develop a layer of very fine down beneath their outer coat. That, and that alone, is cashmere.
It is harvested in the spring, during the molting season, by combing the animal by hand. An adult goat yields on average between one hundred and two hundred grams of fine fiber, which must then be cleared of coarse hairs before it can be spun. This accounts for the limited quantity of this material, and its price.
THE YARN
Extra-fine merino and cashmere
The most balanced blend: the comfort of merino, the touch of cashmere
Wool and cashmere, high wool content
Structure and resistance at the forefront. The everyday garment
Wool and cashmere, high cashmere content
Softer to the touch, slightly fuller-bodied. Declared cold
Cashmere and reinforced merino
The heaviest in the family. A small technical element increases durability where the garment is subjected to the most wear
