Cashmere Crafts

At Cashmere Arts we make sustainable natural, handmade rugs inspired by how people rest, connect and play. Our designs are woven with wool and cotton using centuries old embroidery and textile techniques - These fibres lend warm materiality to interior spaces and are also favoured for their robust, hard-wearing nature. The bridging of East meets West - A collaboration with Canadian artists and entirely handmade by master artisans in Kashmir, India using centuries old embroidery and textile techniques. Our products are hand embroidered using 100% hand-dyed wool in a fair trade environment. Social Enterprise Today Cashmere Crafts supports approximately 60 families. These families are farmers and in the off-season, they are able to make a living by creating these rugs and pillows. The supplies are given to the families to take to their homes. Any adult family member can work on the designs; mothers are able to take care of their children and still be able to help support their families. Environmentally Friendly Cashmere Crafts has a very minimal impact on the environment. Only natural products like wool and cotton are used. All textiles will last a lifetime because of the chainstitch technique that has been handed down from generation to generation. We are committed to creating decor that looks nice without destroying the environment.
