“Kashmir has the best cashmere. The one from the goats found in Peru, or Iran and Afghanistan are of a lower quality. Those who want to avoid the very expensive prices of Loro Piana, Hermes and so forth, can also source specialists locally. In the Netherlands there are a few, one expert is Isabelle Cajfinger with sublime cashmere shawls and blankets. She offers the highest quality existing today with special colour combinations, and pieces that require many months to be hand woven and hand embroidered.”
