Collected exclusively from the goat. Species were only found in isolated regions, survive in the rough mountain winters, evolved exceptional fleece.
Rarity is a significant factor that adds to its allure and cost. Cashmere originates from a particular breed of goats, whose habitat is restricted to the specific regions of Mongolia, China, and the Himalayas. What’s more, the collection of precious cashmere wool is seasonally restricted. This process happens only once a year, after a long, harsh winter when the goats naturally shed their warm undercoats.
