Kashmiri Pashmina Shawl | Red Maroon

About the Product

Crafted from the rarest Pashmina Katan wool, this stunning piece is woven in the heart of Jammu & Kashmir and is a treasure of timeless elegance and artisanal mastery. It is made using an age-old process that involves carefully harvesting Pashmina wool from Changthangi goats' undercoat, cleaning, spinning, and transforming it into a fine Pashmeena mesh before it is shaped into a delicate shawl. The borders are adorned with shimmering Zari work, highlighting the traditional Badaam (almond) motif, a signature of Kashmiri craftsmanship. The regal shade of Red Mahroon embodies luxury, warmth, and the spirit of Kashmiri culture.

Speciality

This shawl is more than simply cloth; it is a piece of history that captures the essence of Kashmiri craftspeople. The process starts in the high-altitude pastures of Ladakh, where Changthangi goats' silky fleece is skillfully combed to produce Pashmina wool. After that, the raw wool goes through a complex process that includes hand cleaning, hand spinning, and weaving into a delicate Pashmeena mesh to guarantee its distinctive softness. The Meheen Kadhayi adds a subtle touch of delicacy, while the laborious Suzanne embroidery takes months of work. The last flourish originates from the Zari border, where the famous Badaam motifs—a symbol of wealth and tradition—are woven together with golden threads.
