Cashmere is most popular in India with name Pashmina. But these days it is very difficult to find real meaning of cashmere/pashmina as lot of fake cashmere/pashmina is in market. But in reality cashmere and pashmina refer to same type of fabric.

Historically Pashmina or Cashmere has been used in India to manufacture Shawls which are popular with name Pashmina Shalws. Please don't get confused by lot of fake pashmina shawls sold in market by name of PASHMINAS.

Specially regions in state of Kashmir and Himachal are most popular for Cashmere / pashmina shawls. Also these are regions where most of cashmere is produced in India.

Please refer to link in the Related Links Section below for futher detailed information about cashmere and pashmina.
