Pashmina Shawl – 90x200cm – 70% Cashmere / 30% Silk – Amethyst

Amethyst is a cheerful purple pashmina shawl for spring lunches and long journeys alike. It is a mid purple with a clear pink lean, nearer orchid than deep violet, and the silk gives it a soft sheen that keeps it fresh over grey tailoring or a cream coat. With blush or dusty rose, it makes a gentle tonal outfit.

Spun two-ply at a 28 count, the yarn pairs 70% cashmere with 30% silk. The silk strengthens the cloth and allows a slightly closer weave, so it is dense and drapes well yet stays light. Made in Nepal at our full shawl size of 90 × 200 cm and finished with hand-twisted tassels, it can be worn open across the whole back, doubled as a deep scarf, or unfolded over your knees on a cold flight.

Stephanie found it “Ideal as a shawl and also doubled up as a lightweight low bulk travel blanket”. Sarah, a customer for over a decade, writes that she always orders “the silk/cashmere pashminas”, and another bought this colour for a friend. A couple of buyers of other colours found the shade different from what they expected, so if the tone matters, order the swatchbook.
