Rare by Nature. Honest by Design
At Lumusae, we don’t just source cashmere; we protect a heritage. From the high-altitude plateaus of Nepal to your wardrobe, every thread tells a story of survival, softness, and uncompromising craft.
A JOURNEY ROOTED IN THE HIGH HIMALAYAS
Lumusae began with a simple promise:
To honor the extraordinary craft of Nepal’s cashmere artisans and bring their work to the world—without compromise.
In the remote highlands of Nepal, the Changra mountain goat produces one of the rarest and finest fibers on earth. For generations, local families have transformed this precious wool into textiles known for their warmth, softness, and longevity.
We created Lumusae to preserve this heritage, support these communities, and share genuine Himalayan cashmere with those who appreciate authenticity.
EVERY PIECE BEGINS WITH A HUMAN HAND
Our artisans are the heart of Lumusae.
Each product is delicately handwoven or knitted by master craftspeople who inherit their skills through generations. Working in small workshops—not factories—they shape every thread with intention, patience, and pride.
A single shawl takes *3–5 days* to weave.
A sweater can take *7–12 days*, depending on the ply, stitch pattern, and detailing.
This is craftsmanship that cannot be rushed.
Radical Transparency
The 'Pashmina' name has been diluted by mass-market blends. Lumusae is different. Every piece we create is NPIA (Nepal Pashmina Industries Association) certified. This is your guarantee of 100% pure fiber, ethical labor, and an authentic origin. No blends. No shortcuts. Just the truth
Every Lumusae piece is:
100% Changra Cashmere
NPIA certified for purity
Ethically sourced with traceability
Low-impact processed to preserve softness
We never blend or dilute our cashmere.
Purity is our signature.
VERIFIED AUTHENTICITY, EVERY TIME
Your purchase includes a unique NPIA Certificate Number, allowing you to verify authenticity directly on our website.
This ensures:
- Genuine Changra cashmere
- Ethical sourcing
- Non-blended fiber
- Transparency from yarn to finished product
Your product’s journey is traceable from artisan to your home.
EMPOWERING THE HANDS THAT CREATE
We work directly with artisan families and small workshops across Nepal, ensuring they receive fair wages, safe work environments, and long-term partnerships—not one-time orders.
With every Lumusae purchase, you support:
- Employment opportunities in remote regions
- Preservation of traditional craftsmanship
- Education programs for artisan families
- Animal welfare training for Changra goat herders
We grow only when our artisans grow.
Slow Fashion isn’t a Trend. It’s Our History.
We reject the cycle of 'disposable' fashion. A Lumusae piece is designed to be a lifetime companion. By working directly with local communities, we ensure that the artisans who hold the knowledge are paid fairly and that the Himalayan ecosystem remains protected for generations to come.
PRESERVE HERITAGE. EMPOWER HANDS. DELIVER AUTHENTICITY.
Lumusae exists to create a bridge between Himalayan artisans and global customers who appreciate authenticity, luxury, and meaningful craftsmanship.
We honor the legacy of Nepalese weaving and bring timeless, high-quality cashmere to the world—one piece at a time.
