Cashmere, eller kashmir som det ogs\u00e5 kaldes, er kendt verden over for sin fortryllende bl\u00f8dhed og varme. Engang var det kun for de mest privilegerede, men i dag kan alle f\u00e5 adgang til denne luksus, der har fundet vej ind i hverdagen for mange. Min egen fascination af cashmere startede som ung, da jeg fik et cashmere-t\u00f8rkl\u00e6de i gave. M\u00f8det med t\u00f8rkl\u00e6dets fjerlette tekstur og enest\u00e5ende bl\u00f8dhed \u00e5bnede d\u00f8ren til en livslang passion.<\/p>\n
Cashmere har en lang rejse bag sig, der starter i de barske egne, hvor cashmeregederne lever. Cashmere-geden (Capra hircus langier) stammer fra Kashmir-regionen og har udviklet en t\u00e6t underuld, som beskytter den mod den ekstreme kulde. Gederne gr\u00e6sser i h\u00f8jder, hvor vintrene er uforudsigelige og h\u00e5rde. Denne underuld \u2013 cashmerefibrene \u2013 er hemmeligheden bag tekstilernes bl\u00f8dhed og varme.<\/p>\n
Fra den samlede \u00e5rlige verdensproduktion p\u00e5 omkring 10.000 tons kommer st\u00f8rstedelen fra Kina og Mongoliet. De fineste cashmerefibre samles n\u00e6nsomt i dyrenes f\u00e6ldeperiode, hvor dyrene b\u00f8rstes, og fibrene sorteres omhyggeligt efter kvalitet. En cashmere-fibers kvalitet afh\u00e6nger af dens diameter og l\u00e6ngde \u2013 de fineste og l\u00e6ngste fibre er eftertragtede for deres silkebl\u00f8de tekstur og styrke.<\/p>\n
Hvid cashmere er den mest v\u00e6rdifulde, da den kan farves i sarte pastelfarver, mens brun cashmere oftest anvendes til m\u00f8rkere nuancer. For at opn\u00e5 den ypperste kvalitet anvendes lange fibre, som spindes til worsted garn. Denne teknik giver garnet en glattere og st\u00e6rkere struktur, som resulterer i et tekstil, der er lettere og mere holdbart \u2013 en essentiel faktor for cashmere i luksusklassen.<\/p>\n
Siden Kinas \u00f8konomiske liberalisering i 1980’erne har cashmere-markedet gennemg\u00e5et store forandringer. Mens cashmere f\u00f8r mest blev v\u00e6vet i luksusfabrikker i Skotland og Italien, begyndte Kina og Mongoliet at producere deres egne cashmerevarer. I dag samarbejder europ\u00e6iske producenter med kinesiske fabrikker for at sikre r\u00e5materialernes kvalitet og opretholde standarderne for luksustekstiler.<\/p>\n
Oprindeligt blev pashmina-produkter v\u00e6vet af h\u00e5ndspundne cashmerefibre indsamlet i Kashmir-regionen. I dag bruges ordene cashmere og pashmina ofte synonymt, men sandheden er, at pashmina engang var en s\u00e6rligt fin type cashmere, h\u00e5ndv\u00e6rksm\u00e6ssigt bearbejdet i Kashmirs traditioner. Denne \u00e6dle arv har skabt en mystik omkring cashmere, der stadig lever videre.<\/p>\n

Pashmina shawls are handwoven in Kashmir, and it was also popular in Nepal. Still, with time, Nepal has lost its industry because of the Industrial Revolution. A pure form of hand-spun wool is not available in the market, one of the indications given to the Kashmir valley, which detonates its purity. For over a thousand years, this wool is for making shawls and blankets priced by royalty and ordinary people like its softness and warmth and long life.<\/p>\n
For centuries, Kashmir has been the only place for it. According to the treaties that gave the maharaja of Kashmir exclusive rights to Tibet.<\/p>\n
It is not only the coldness that matters in making this wool from the goat, but the altitude also provides the soften and delicacy. The best climatic conditions belong to the excellent climate of the Ladakh region of Kashmir. This wool has been admired for decades in the East.<\/p>\n
The Western world has been reluctant to discover pashminas’ unique qualities. Today most of the pashm shawls are woven on the traditional looms in the Kashmir valley. One must not get confused about the traditional looms. When it comes to the weaving of pure wool shawls, these traditional looms are different from the handlooms.<\/p>\n
Kashmir is the only place globally recognized for its products with geographical indication certification because Kashmir people use only traditional ways to make the original products.<\/p>\n

PASHMINAENS HISTORIE: FRA MUGHAL-KEJSERE TIL HOLLYWOODS STJERNER<\/strong><\/p>\n I de seneste \u00e5r er blandingen af silke og pashmina blevet en vestlig favorit, men den betragtes ikke som \u00e6gte.<\/p>\n Pashmina er det mest originale og autentiske fiber, som opstod i Kashmir for flere hundrede \u00e5r siden. Kunsten at fremstille pashmina i Kashmirdalen menes at v\u00e6re omkring 3000 \u00e5r gammel. Denne pashminakunst blev beundret og elsket af de kongelige. Pashmina var kendt blandt kongernes dronninger, royale familier og adelige verden over. Ikke kun Mughalkejserne var betagede af pashminas sk\u00f8nhed; den franske monark Napoleon Bonaparte for\u00e6rede et pashminasjal til sin hustru, Josephine.<\/p>\n Hun menes at have haft en samling af dem. Senere i Iran var herskere ikke kun glade for at b\u00e6re dem, men ogs\u00e5 for at give dem som politiske gaver. I Indien var maharaja Ranjit Singh s\u00e5 fascineret af pashmina, at han udsmykkede sit hof med h\u00e5ndbroderede kunstv\u00e6rker og stoffer.<\/p>\n CHANGTHANGI-GEDER FRA CHANGTHANG<\/strong><\/p>\n Dyreh\u00e5rsfiberen fra Changthangi-gederne er kilden til denne h\u00e5ndlavede delikatesse. P\u00e5 persisk betyder “pushm” uld, men i Kashmir refererer pushm til Chanthangi-gedernes r\u00e5uld.<\/p>\n Denne h\u00f8je v\u00e6rdi resulterede i stor eftersp\u00f8rgsel efter mere r\u00e5materiale, hvilket f\u00f8rte til, at eftersp\u00f8rgslen oversteg udbuddet. Hver for\u00e5r f\u00e6lder de tamme Changthangi-geder deres vinterpels, som bliver til pashmina. I f\u00e6ldes\u00e6sonen om for\u00e5ret tr\u00e6nes disse geder til naturligt at afgive deres underuld.<\/p>\n “Changpa”-folket i Himalayas Ladakh-region er ber\u00f8mte som traditionelle producenter af pashminauld.<\/p>\n [\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=”27819″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”hover” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”][\/spb_image] [spb_blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_button button_text=”SHOP PASHMINA SHAWLS” button_size=”large” button_colour=”grey” button_type=”bordered” rounded=”no” button_dropshadow=”no” button_link=”https:\/\/zlcopenhagen.com\/product-category\/accessories\/pashmina-scarves-shawls\/” button_target=”_blank” align=”center” animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_image image=”18454″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”hover” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/2″ el_position=”first”][\/spb_image] [spb_image image=”18466″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”hover” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/2″ el_position=”last”][\/spb_image] [spb_blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_image image=”27814″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” caption_pos=”hover” remove_rounded=”yes” fullwidth=”no” overflow_mode=”none” link_target=”_self” lightbox=”no” intro_animation=”none” animation_delay=”200″ width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”][\/spb_image] [spb_text_block animation=”none” animation_delay=”0″ simplified_controls=”yes” custom_css_percentage=”no” padding_vertical=”0″ padding_horizontal=”0″ margin_vertical=”0″ custom_css=”margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;” border_size=”0″ border_styling_global=”default” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]<\/p>\n Der er noget magisk ved Kashmir.
