The history of chyangra pashmina been discussed so long and its quality itself. But in present Manufacturing world, you have to be aware of duplicate chyangra pashmina and its other alternatives found in the market. However now I can assure you that with the implementation of the Chyangra hologram Label Introduced by Pashmina Association of Nepal there is the good control with the quality of chyangra pashmina used in weaving and knitting.

With the rise of counterfeit products, Diamond Knitland now provides Chyangra hologram labels and lab test certificates for every pashmina product. Here’s how you can ensure your pashmina is genuine.
Chyangra Pashmina Collection and its Quality
Pashmina collection is done during the spring season of the year from the himalayan goat locally called Chyangra with its scientific name Capra hircus and then spun into yarn to weave and knit.
In international market you could find different qualities of pashmina like 100% pashmina, 80% pashmina and 20% silk, 50 %/50% pashmina and silk, 30% and 10%. The pashmina can also be blended with merino wool.
Apart from these qualities, you would find other qualities that looks like similar to pashmina in currentdays. Likewise they would called 100% or 70% pashmina but it could have some mix of wool as well.
Beside that there is some polyester mix woolen yarn seen in the market in 28/2 count which are sold as pashmina with cheaper price local version we called it fake pashmina. Moreover there are some viscous blended wool or pashmina found which looks like similar to pashmina but they are also fake pashmina.
Pashmina or cashmere products are of different type with style or quality found in Nepalese market.Water shawl and stole are famous style type which is still popular in international market. Likewise ring pashmina shawl and scarves are the other varieties that gets sold in big quantities around the globe. So Diamond Knitland manufacture these pashmina products from quality pashmina yarn with perfect finishing.
Hence, I would like to suggest our genuine buyer to buy the products from genuine supplier who can provide lab test certificate and who are registered with Pashmina Association of Nepal for Chyangra hologram label.
Likewise our factory Diamond Knitland can provide lab test certificate for the pashmina we sell in the market and we are registered with Pashmina Association of Nepal for the trade mark or hologram label of Chyangra pashmina.
Pashmina Dyeing and Colored Pashmina
Moreover pashmina buyer need to be sure on what and how their supplier are using the dyeing process. Pashmina can be dyed either in hanks or with woven or knitted panels. You can get dyed cones directly from the big manufacturers of pashmina yarn like Consignee or Novotex from China.
The most commonly used color are black , grey, charcoal, brown, cream,sky blue, baby blue,Teracota, Apple green and more. For the machine dyeing commonly found are chemical acid normal dyeing which I personally don’t recommend for pashmina.
So we Diamond Knitland only use Swiss dye for our pashmina products which is renowned all over the world for its color fastness and quality. It doesn’t harm to our skin as well and its azo free.
Hence we recommend our buyers to be aware of duplicate pashmina found in the market and be assured on what they pay for and it’s durability and cozy feeling for the original pashmina.

How to Spot Fake Pashmina: Expert Step-by-Step Guide
Buying Pashmina can be tricky—fake products are everywhere, often hard to distinguish from genuine Chyangra Pashmina. But with a few simple checks, you can quickly verify authenticity and shop with confidence.
1. Burn Test (Definitive Check)
Take a few fibers from the edge of the fabric. Real Pashmina smells like burnt hair and turns into fine, powdery ash. Synthetic fibers like polyester melt, form hard beads, and emit a chemical odor.
2. Static Test
Rub a corner of the scarf against itself. Synthetic fibers generate static electricity, causing dust to cling to the fabric. Real Pashmina does not produce static.
3. Weave & Transparency
Hold the fabric up to light. Authentic Pashmina is handwoven with slightly irregular texture and mostly opaque. Excessive transparency or uniform weave indicates a fake.
4. Texture & Finish
Genuine Pashmina is soft, matte, and luxurious to the touch. Inspect the edges—real Pashmina has frayed, unfinished edges, whereas machine-made or synthetic products appear smooth and even.
5. Price & Certification
- Price: Genuine Chyangra Pashmina is labor-intensive and expensive; extremely low prices are a red flag.
- Certification: Look for lab-tested certificates and the official Chyangra hologram label from trusted suppliers like Diamond Knitland.
