A quiet pursuit of excellence — Himalayan roots, Italian threads, Nepalese craftsmanship.
Read the storyBorn in the Himalayas and refined by meticulous hands, Kanchan Cashmere is quiet luxury made visible. We design with restraint — balanced proportions, tactile textures, and longevity in every piece. Our yarn partners are certified and traceable; our garments are shaped on hand-flat machines and finished by artisans in Nepal.
Each season we work in small, deliberate runs. Fewer, better pieces; enduring comfort; considered packaging. This is our way.
Our atelier opens with just a handful of hand-flat knitting machines and a vision rooted in precision. From the beginning, every piece was guided by devotion to craftsmanship, couture-level finishing, and the quiet ambition to elevate Nepalese cashmere onto the world stage.
With growing recognition from international partners, our atelier scales to over 80 hand-flat knitting machines. This period marks the evolution from a boutique workshop into a structured production house — maintaining artisanal precision while embracing capacity to serve the world’s leading luxury brands.
Kanchan Cashmere Industries expands its buyer partnerships while achieving the highest standards of yarn certification — SFA, GOTS, GRS, OEKO-TEX®, and OCS. With over 335+ swatches developed for FW 2026–27, the atelier strengthens its reputation as a bridge between Himalayan purity, Italian yarn excellence, and global luxury houses.
In our Kathmandu atelier, garments are shaped on hand-flat knitting machines, carefully linked by hand, and brought to life through patient finishing. Each step reflects quiet discipline and uncompromising standards — a process where precision and tradition converge to create knitwear of enduring elegance.
Through our Italian yarn partners, every cone we source is fully traceable — from raw fiber at the herders’ level to the spinning mills that refine it. This transparency ensures that provenance is never in question: each yarn carries a verifiable journey, offering designers and brands confidence in both origin and authenticity.
Alongside traceability, our yarns arrive with internationally recognized certifications — OEKO-TEX®, GOTS, GRS, OCS, and SFA — guaranteeing sustainability, safety, and ethical integrity at every stage. These certifications transform commitment into proof, ensuring that every creation from our atelier aligns with the highest global standards.
Sustainability does not end at the garment. At Kanchan Cashmere, we extend our responsibility to the way each piece is presented and delivered. Our packaging is designed with minimal environmental impact — crafted from FSC-certified papers, recycled and recyclable materials, and biodegradable alternatives to plastic. Every box, tag, and wrap reflects the same principles that guide our atelier: refinement, responsibility, and respect for the planet.
Every detail matters. Our buttons, zippers, labels, and trims are tested and certified under the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, one of the world’s most trusted marks for textile safety. This certification ensures that even the smallest components of our garments are free from harmful substances, meeting rigorous international criteria. With certified trims, we extend our promise of integrity beyond the fabric itself — proving that luxury can be as safe as it is beautiful.
Luxury is restraint — the courage to leave only what elevates.
