A personalised cashmere shawl, blanket or scarf is in a different category from almost any other gift. It requires thought. It requires craft. And it results in something genuinely one-of-a-kind that the recipient will keep for decades. Here's everything you need to know about ordering personalised cashmere.
What Can Be Embroidered on Cashmere?
At CloudSpun, our personalisation options are more extensive than most. Every embroidery is hand-worked by our team of artisans onto Grade AAA cashmere:
Monograms and Initials
The classic choice. One, two or three initials worked in a range of embroidery scripts — from classic Roman serifs to flowing script, block capitals to intertwined monogram styles. Position can be at the corner, centre, or along one edge.
Names and Dates
A full first name, a surname, or a significant date — a wedding anniversary, a birthday, a birth date. These work beautifully on blankets as family heirlooms or as wedding gifts.
Pet Portraits
Our most talked-about offering. Our artisan team hand-renders a portrait of your dog, cat, horse or other pet directly from a photograph you supply. Each portrait is drawn and then embroidered by hand — no digital printing. Typically 10×10cm to 15×15cm, positioned at one corner of the shawl or blanket. No two are ever exactly the same.
Gift Wrapping and Occasion Cards
Every personalised order ships with our signature ivory gift box, tissue wrapping, and a hand-tied ribbon. You can add a handwritten occasion card from our team — the finishing touch that makes opening the gift an experience in itself.
How Long Does Personalised Cashmere Take?
Our standard lead time for personalised cashmere is 10–14 working days from order confirmation. Rush orders (7 working days) are available for an additional charge and subject to capacity. For time-sensitive gifts such as weddings or significant birthdays, contact us directly before placing the order and we'll confirm availability.
Caring for Personalised Cashmere
Embroidered cashmere requires exactly the same care as plain — hand wash cool, reshape flat, store folded. The embroidery threads are fully colourfast and will not bleed or fade with proper cold-water washing. Never dry clean embroidered cashmere as the chemicals can discolour silk threads.
Personalised Cashmere for Weddings
Personalised cashmere shawls and blankets have become one of the most popular wedding gift choices for couples who have everything. A blanket embroidered with the couple's names and wedding date, or shawls for the bride and her mother with matching monograms — these are gifts that last the lifetime of the marriage.
Corporate and Bulk Personalisation
We work with a number of businesses for corporate gifting — personalised cashmere shawls bearing a company logo or client name, presented in branded packaging. Minimum orders and lead times vary. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
