Information
has glosseng: Shahtoosh (also written Shatush) - a Persian word meaning "Pleasure of Kings" - was the name given to a specific kind of shawl, which was woven with the down hair of the Chiru or Tibetan Antelope, by the weavers of Kashmir. These shawls were originally very few and it took very skilled artisans to weave the delicate hair (which measured between 9 and 11 micrometres). These factors made Shahtoosh shawls very precious. Shahtoosh are so fine that an average size shawl can be passed through a wedding ring.

Castilian
has glossspa: Shahtoosh (también escrito Shatush) - es una palabra persa que significa "Placer de los reyes" - y es el nombre que se le da a un tipo particular de chal, tejida utilizando las hebras del pelaje del antílope tibetano o chiru, por los tejedores de Cachemira. Originalmente existían muy pocos de estos chales y su producción requería de artesanos muy hábiles para tejer con los delicados pelos (que poseen un diámetro de entre 9 a 11 micrómetros). Estos factores convertían a los chales Shahtoosh en objetos preciosos. El Shahtoosh es tan liviano que un chal de tamaño mediano puede ser pasado sin dificultad por un anillo de bodas.

has glosszho: 沙图什(shahtoosh),沙图什的发音来自于波斯语,“shah”意为皇帝,“toosh”则是羊绒,“shahtoosh”意为“羊绒之王”。沙图什通常来说,是指所有由藏羚羊绒加工的产品,但主要是指一种用藏羚羊绒毛织成的披肩。藏羚羊是一种生活在青藏高原的动物。由于原料来源的原因沙图什产品非常昂贵,一个沙图什披肩的价格从5000到11000美元不等。 质地 藏羚羊的羊绒非常细,其直径约为11.5微米,是克什米尔山羊羊绒的四分之三,是人发的五分之一。沙图什披肩十分轻巧,重量仅有百克左右,可以穿过戒指,所以又叫“指环披肩”。将沙图什穿过戒指是沙图什贩卖者证实沙图什真伪的一个传统。由于纤维细密,藏羚羊绒具有上佳的保暖性。有一个夸张的说法,说用沙图什包起一个鸽子蛋,就可以孵出小鸽子,或者这个蛋会被捂熟。
