What is cashmere?
Cashmere is an animal fiber sourced from the very fine undercoat of the cashmere goat, raised mainly in mountainous regions of Asia where temperatures can be extremely low. To protect itself from the cold, the animal develops a naturally insulating and soft fiber.
This fiber is produced in limited quantities, which explains its reputation as a rare material. Cashmere is appreciated for its fineness, lightness and skin comfort.
