Our History
Our company has existed for many years under the name of Shawl Cosmos of kashmiri Crafts (SCOKC), and was originally founded as an effort to maintain the tradition of processing cashmere wool in small family businesses in Kashmir, a traditional production method that dates back many generations.
One of the goals of Kashmiri Copenhagen is to provide small shawl producers in Kashmir an opportunity to earn a living wage and thereby improve the quality of life for themselves and for the local community, and to continue the long and honored tradition of cashmere shawl making.
