The Orenburg Shawl is one of the classic symbols of Russian handicraft. This type of finely knit, down-hair lace shawl originated in the Orenburg area about 250 years ago, in the 18th century.The Orenburg region of Russia is famous for its shawls, known as Orenburg shawls/scarves. The down hair of Orenburg goats is the thinnest in the world – 16-18 micrometer, and that of Angora goats (mohair) is 22-24 micrometer. Products made of Orenburg down hair are therefore especially soft and fine. The thinness of hair is partly due to the severe snowy winters of the Ural mountain steppes, along with particular qualities of feed and living conditions. The Orenburg goat breed can only be reared in the Orenburg Region. * * * ONLY HAND WASH!! Hand wash in warm water (30° - 35°С(86°- 95°F)). Hand wash with shampoo or mild soap, squeezed (don’t wring) to remove excess water and lay flat to dry. You can also use pins to stretch the shawl and keep the pattern nice. You can also iron shawl with HOT iron through false or fabric.
