Join the Yak wool revolution. Lauded by Ladakhi healers (amchis) for its medicinal properties, yak wools shawls are known to bring comfort and strength to the body and soul. Reach for a classic cream and tan herringbone  shawl spun from the yak khullu (the soft, downy-haired inner layer of the animal), and edged with a confident, black stripe. The white yak is the rarest type. Only one animal in one thousand is born with the snow colored hair— making this shawl an ultra-limited, exclusive piece from the Yak Khullu shawls by JIGMAT COUTURE, Ladakh's most prolific and talented design house. JIGMAT COUTURE transforms yak wool, famous for its strength and warmth, into stunning shawls and scarves. These earthy, heirloom pieces are impervious to piling, warmer than cashmere, and unsurpassed for their sustainability as they create new opportunities for the region's shepherds, weavers, and designers.
