Shawl 2

exquisite and luxurious garments known for their softness, warmth, and fine texture. They originate from the Kashmir region of India and are made from cashmere wool, which is derived from the undercoat of the Himalayan mountain goat known as the Changthangi or Pashmina goat. These shawls have been prized for centuries for their quality and craftsmanship.

Crafting a Pashmina shawl is a labor-intensive process that involves several steps, including combing the fine undercoat from the goats, spinning the wool into yarn, and weaving the yarn into the fabric using traditional hand looms. Skilled artisans often hand-embroider intricate designs onto the shawls, adding to their beauty and value.
