STOLE – “voile de cashmere”

Our principal collection contributor, which supplies its raw material, is a goat living in Central Asia.
 
This animal is incredibly resistant to extreme temperatures, from the lowest to the highest.
 
It is precisely for those changing climates that such mountain goats produce a special wool, underneath its fur, called “duvet”, acting as an isolant.

The more hostile the weather conditions, the softer the duvet becomes.
 
The most precious cashmere is found at the heart of Mongolia. Some can also be found in neighboring regions.
 
The “cashmere wind” stole, Heavens Genève’s collection icon, is manufactured with one of the thinnest and most precious cashmere in the world.
 
A single stole’s completion requires more than 10 kilometers of yarn for an absolute weight of 100 grams.

Heavens Genève is thrilled to offer such a unique and exceptional quality to its demanding clientele.
