What is the authenticity of the material and compositions?

How do I take care of my Pashmina or Wool Shawl?

For washing of your valuable pieces please wash through a professional dry cleaner or hand wash in cold water. For storage, please keep the piece wrapped in a muslin cloth or a plastic polybag. You can read more here.

Are wool shawls warm? And will they be itchy?

KCS Wool Shawls are made with fine counts of wool to ensure softness and warmth. Wool is a fantastic natural fiber with amazing insulation properties which will definitely keep you warm in cold temperatures. The warmth is felt 10-15 minutes after use and not instantly.

Freshly made wool shawls may show an itchy sensation in the beginning. The microfibers rise on constant touch and use and these unique fibers become more hairy and hence more soft after a short time. Indeed a rare product which continues to evolve better with time rather than the other way around in these fast fashion times!

Yes! After placing your order please let us know your GST number by email and we will generate a GST tax invoice through which you can claim
input credit.

Would there be a difference in the colors of the items shown vs when received?

There will always be a slight difference between the colors shown on your desktop or mobile screen as compared to what you receive in person. We try to photograph our items in a way to represent the true colors of the piece. We do not do any color editing or enhancement on our photos which changes the colors. Lighting conditions at your home vs where we shoot, screen resolutions and brightness settings of desktop or mobile systems are a reason for this slight difference on what we see on screen vs what we receive.
