SOFT GOLD - The finest cashmere


I was at the Atelier Designers Show in NYC last week waiting for an appointment when a gentleman came into the room representing a company selling cashmere. He could not get over the quality and price of my products and wanted to know where I bought them.

That's a trade secret of course, but I would like to share with you that 2 ply, 12 gauge is only meaningful in the context of fiber length and density.

The best is called Erlangshan cashmere and is well known for its softness, whiteness, fineness and length. In China, this special cashmere is referred to as "soft gold" because it is rare and sold in grams.
