Chyangra Pashmina is internationally recognized as cashmere of the highest grade. It is the world’s most revered luxury fiber, sourced from the native Himalayan mountain goats called ‘Chyangra’ (capra hircus laniger) in Nepal. The Chyangra goats are raised high in the isolated Himalayas, at heights of over three thousand meters above sea level.
The Chyangra Goat is a well-known breed of mountain goats found in the high altitudes of the Himalayan region, and produces the world’s most expensive and finest quality of luxurious cashmere wool. Though also used for meat, they are more famous for the development of the world-famous Pashmina wool industry in Nepal and India.
The scriptures, the Nepalese breeders, and the local people, including the wool traders say that, references to the Chyangra breed has been made even in the Indian epic ‘Mahabharata’, where the kings and the emperors would use a fine variety of wool derived from a breed of wooly goats from the Himalayan regions, which is the Chyangra.List Of Producers Of Chyangra Pashmina Products

The ‘Pashmina’ and Wool Production
The pashmina wool is actually a natural adaptation of the Chyangra goat. The wool protects the animal from the extreme weather conditions around the Himalayas. The property of the pashmina is such that, it can retain ample heat to protect the animal from the fierce biting cold and the severe blitz of the high mountains, all the year round.
Extracted from the inner coats of the Chyangra goat, discarding the relatively coarse and thick outer coat, the ‘Pashmina’ wool is the world’s softest, weightless, exotically delicate, and finest natural insulating fiber. Thus, only the inner layer fibers with a thickness of below 16.5 microns are typically used as the Pashmina. The downy fur around the chest and the neck areas produces the finest quality of wool.
The fine quality of this cashmere wool is found from goats living in high altitudes, starting from 3000 meters in the Himalayas, but higher the better. This exotic and gossamer property of the Pashmina wool has popularized it around the globe as the ‘Diamond Fiber’. Each Chyangra goat produces only 100 grams or less of usable wool.
