What is a shawl

Another marvel in textiles from Kashmir are the JAMAWAR Shawls, they go back to the 18th and 19th centuries. They were traditional to Central Asia and Persia. The original weaving technique called Kani has been lost in the mist of time, legend and tradition. Kashmir, however was the only area where a new technique of weaving was developed to create these sophisticated shawls, where the design, like tapestry is hand woven into the fabric of the cloth. The Jamawar Shawls are made from the fleece of the Capra Hircus goat, known over the world as "cashmere" or properly termed "Pashm". These Shawls have captured the attention of the world, where they are highly appreciated for their unique beauty and softness

Due to the total hand crafted process, small irregularities are not to be considered a flaw; it is part of the beauty and uniqueness of these Shawls.
