Shokay … style with a touch of humanity
–considers every thread of the way.
Soft, delicate, stunning… I feel like I am holding a piece of heaven in my hands. Honestly, I said heaven. I am holding the most gorgeous hand warmer gloves from Shokay – I just got them in the mail. I can’t stop caressing them!
Made from 100% Yak this fabric is compared to cashmere, if not softer!! The luxury “yak down” is hand combed from yaks in the pristine Himalayan regions of China! Shokay gets the fiber directly from Tibetan herders, which enables these people to earn a sustainable income. I have never owned anything made from yak, and I must say I am impressed with the soft texture and insulating qualities!
These ‘one of a kind’ gloves just continue to impress me, not only are they uniquely made out of yak, but they are hand knit with a special touch. The tag on the gloves name the knitter who made my gloves! My hand warmer gloves were knitted by Mei Juan Shi and I can even look at her profile biography online! Check out behind the product – it really makes you appreciate the little things about the product.
From the fabric, to the hand made quality – these gloves are stunning! I can definitely tell they are made with care and precision. They are beautiful in every way.
Shokay has lots more gorgeous winter item on their site.
One of my favorite items is the tafetta shawl, hand knit from yak down. It is priced at $250 and is completely gorgeous – perfect for any autumn outfit. You could literally wear this with your ugliest shirt and ripped up jeans and still look spectacular! I am not kidding… see it for yourself! Another item that I just can’t stop admiring is the Rose Clutch. This clutch isn’t just any typical clutch, it is impressively hand knit from yak and bamboo yarns and is priced at $65. Being the girly girly that I am, I’m obsessed with the little rose embellishments …so cute …so feminine! They also hand make a Rose Coin Purse that would make a perfect stocking stuffer to go along with the Rose Clutch Christmas gift!
