Kashmir Heavy-Knit Boiled Wool Crinkled Style Hand-Embroidered Scarf Shawl - Starry Blue

From the ethereal beauty of Kashmir, India, comes this hand-stitched boiled wool shawl, a testament to artisanal craftsmanship. The patterns draw inspiration from the ancient Mughal gardens of Kashmir, evolving into intricate, organic floral motifs that evoke a sense of mystery and elegance. These designs were once treasured by European nobility. Crafted from the finest Kashmiri wool, the shawl's beauty and durability are enhanced by the boiled wool process. It offers a refined and chic warmth for winter ensembles, and can also serve as a stylish, comforting accessory in cooler office environments, ensuring elegance wherever you go. The boiled wool technique utilizes Kashmir's pristine environment. Woven shawls are simmered in pure, high-altitude snowmelt collected at sunrise, then air-dried under moonlight after sunset. This week-long process compacts and densifies the wool, resulting in a rich, full texture that is exceptionally windproof and warm. It is resistant to shrinkage and snagging, ensuring remarkable longevity. 🐑 Product Specifications Origin: Kashmir Material: 100% Kashmiri Wool Dimensions: 203 cm x 71 cm This is a purely handmade wool shawl.
