A warm, exquisite cashmere stole that softens with age
The more you use these warm stoles made in Japan with exquisite Italian Cariaggi cashmere, the fluffier they become.
Kashmir goat hairs are too fine to weave with machines, so they must be woven by hand. With very few skilled craftsmen, producing products in Japan with this exquisite cashmere yarn is quite difficult. That is what makes these stoles very precious. The only weaver who could handle cashmere in Japan was elderly and became ill, so they could no longer produce our stoles. We searched high and low before we found a factory with a veteran weaver who agreed to make our products. We wanted to continue offering the best products made in Japan, and with integrity we wanted to maintain the good quality for which our stoles are known.

Exquisite Italian Cashmere Wool
Cashmere comes from the downy undercoats of cashmere goats, which inhabit mountainous Kashmir region with harsh temperatures. To protect themselves from the cold climate, they grow hair that retains heat and moisture. Therefore, the stoles made from their wool are extremely light and warm. The Italian Cariaggi cashmere yarn we use in these stoles is of the finest quality and requires a veteran weaver to transform it into stoles.

The Fluffier They Grow, the Softer They Hug You
The main difference between ordinary wool and cashmere wool is the thinness of the fibers. Cashmere fibers are fine and supple, so they do not irritate, instead feeling soft to the touch. The oils in the hair cover the fibers, lending them a wet feel unique to cashmere. People with sensitive skin or those who dislike the prickliness of wool can wear cashmere products without a worry. Cashmere, as well as ordinary wool, is very heat retentive compared to other natural fibers. Since air has a lower heat conductivity than fiber, the more air a fiber contains, the warmer it is. Cashmere also has high moisture absorption properties.

Stoles You Can Use for Ages
Cashmere has a unique, subtle luster, so it matches any attire, especially formal occasions where you want to accentuate your outfit with an accessory. Add a touch of glamor without feeling self-conscious.
For wholesalers, we attach dry cleaning labels. When lightly washing the stole at home, wrap it in a bath towel and pat lightly to remove excess water, then lay it out flat to dry to retain the cashmere’s soft fluffy texture. With proper care, you can enjoy your stole for years without worrying about a drop in quality.
