Customer Review: Lovely, but not traditional pashmina
Rating: 3 Stars
You get what you pay for, and after losing a much-loved (and ancient) pashmina shawl, I ordered a couple of these to tide me over. Then I went down to my local East Asian market to look for something better, and found a whole heap of these jacquard ones for $10 each, so check around -- they were identical. Now, to be honest, I was under no illusion that at $16 a pop, these were traditional Nepalese pashmina, but they looked pretty in the photos, and they really are in person. As I understand it, the US has no standard for the term pashmina so people are selling heaven knows what with prices all over the board. At least these shawls did not hold static electricity like some so-called pashminas. But the tags are cheaply glued in, bright white, and impossible to remove without literally peeling half the fabric content away. (Traditional pashmina won't take glue, and the tags s/be lightly tacked w/thread at each corner.) If I had it to do over again, I'd just color these tags with a Sharpie to blend in. Still, I think for a pretty wrap for an evening out, these will do nicely. But don't kid yourself what they are. For a warm, durable pashmina that is designed to last a lifetime and will ward off the elements, shop elsewhere. And expect to pay at least $100 for a smallish, basic, machine-made version, and upwards of $400 for a traditional version. I am going to enjoy my cheapies as decorative accessories, but keep shopping for a workhorse pashmina. I'm thinking the Rocky Mt. Emporium here is the way to go. Looks like the real deal.
