Very elegant, fine wool Paisley Shawl designed in the mode of the grand shawls worn at the most influential courts of Kashmir, India, and France during the 17th century. This graceful shawl, or “shal,” exquisitely reflects an eclectic artistry drawn from the variety of cultures which harmoniously thrived in ancient Kashmir for many decades, a society of tolerance which included Hindu, Buddhist, Mughal, Persian, and a multitude of indigenous tribal traditions. It has been inspired by a flowing legacy of inner and outer beauty, created with the gloriously abundant display of flowers and refinement of craftsmanship which are hallmarks of highly prized Kashmiri Shawls.

Woven in rich, deep shades of Dark Garnet Red, Emerald Green, lively Olive Green, Parchment, Terracotta, Golden Almond, Gray, and Black, this lovely full size shawl is embellished with serene Quarter Moons in two corners, stately Palace Gates with flowing lines and arches in the center of the field, stately Paisleys, Himalayan Blossoms, and borders of stylized Peacock Feathers. On the Subcontinent, the Peacock Feather is regarded as a symbol of both spiritual and secular authority. Doorways adorned with Peacock symbology are believed to be auspicious, inviting blessings to all who pass through. Patterned after an antique Kani weave Jamawar Shawl embellished with hand embroidery from the dynasty that also built the Taj Mahal, this unique wrap was fashioned with the generous help of private collectors who made their original shawls available to a trusted designer and producer so that the distinctive styles from that era may be enjoyed by others.

Produced with soft Lambswool Pashm from England, spun and loomed in northern India, this delightful mid-weight shawl is both beautiful and practical. As a versatile accessory for any wardrobe, with a change of jewelry and understated attire, this shawl easily moves from casual to dress occasions and is ideal for travel anywhere in the world.
