How do I care for my cashmere home accessories (blankets, throws)?
Cashmere home accessories such as blankets and throws should be cared for gently to maintain their softness and longevity. Alashan Cashmere pieces can be gently hand washed in cool water using a mild detergent formulated for cashmere or wool, or professionally dry cleaned if preferred. Avoid twisting or wringing the fabric; instead, gently press out excess water, roll the item in a clean towel, and lay it flat to dry in its natural shape, away from direct heat or sunlight. Before storing, always ensure your cashmere is clean, then fold and place it in a cool, dry space. For more detailed care instructions, visit our Cashmere Care Guide.
Can cashmere gifts be used year-round?
Yes, Alashan cashmere gifts can be enjoyed year-round, depending on the item and your climate. Lighter cashmere throws, wraps, and accessories are naturally breathable and help regulate temperature, making them comfortable beyond winter, especially when exploring our summer cashmere collection. Thicker cashmere pieces provide cozy warmth during colder months, as seen in our winter cashmere styles, allowing cashmere gifts to be versatile, practical, and timeless throughout the year.
