Purple Pashmina Scarf AC1578-PURP

Cordings is delighted to announce a new collaboration with Chang – Ra, an ethical accessories brand, run by a women’s collective in the Himalayas. Whilst roaming “the roof of the world” in Ladakh, Northern India, we stumbled on Chang - Ra and decided to partner with them. The luxurious pure fibre from the Changra goat is known globally as Pashmina, it is the softest and most expensive wool in the world. Ladakh produces less than 1% of the world’s total raw cashmere, but it is renowned for being the best. The production of these scarves supports the Changra nomadic people in their efforts to preserve their unique identity, culture and lifestyle. The micron of the fibre measures 8 – 10 microns in width, making it 10 times finer than human hair and eight times finer than sheep’s wool. The fibre used in our scarves is supported by authenticated independent laboratory testing of the raw material are all ethically certified and are 100% sustainable.
