A robust lambs wool shawl offering extraordinary warmth and durability. One of a kind, this piece is a timeless design that will keep you warm and cozy all season long. 

The Changthang Plateau, located in Ladakh, India, is a striking high-altitude expanse that stretches into northern Tibet. Renowned for its breathtaking scenery, stunning mountain ranges and extreme climate, this semi-arid plateau sits at an average elevation of about 4,500 meters (14,800 feet).

This wool is sourced from sheep that graze freely. Their herding practices are designed to prevent overgrazing, ensuring the sustainability of the pastures. Sheep have been herded for generations, along with pashmina goat and yak, by the Changpa nomadic families who inhabit the plateau.
