Pashmina shawls are woven entirely by hands, they are extremely delicate and could get spoilt when washing if proper care is not taken. Professional dry clean is requested. Before storing valuable items in basements or attics, check carefully for leaks, dampness and sunlight. Fold clothes or pack them neatly in tissue paper or plastic bag and store them in closet away from light, dust and dampness. Cleaning before storage is recommended, as fresh stains that may not yet be visible will oxidize and become fixed during storage, they may also be the food for moths.
Moths have a discerning palate, they feast only on natural fabrics.
Do not wear the garment next to rough clothing, metal necklace, bracelet, belt and rough leather such as crocodile leather bags. Dress up your cashmere with silk scarf and pearl accessories instead of accessories with rough surface . Pilling is caused by abrasion during regular use, it often develops on elbows, on the seat of skirts, and in areas rubbed by a bag or briefcase, even seat belt. Soft, fuzzy surfaces are more susceptible than others. To avoid pilling, it is important not to rub the garment with rough clothing, metal accessories, bags and all kinds of belts.
