Kashmir Heavy-Knit Boiled Wool Crinkled Style Hand-Embroidered Scarf Shawl - Lake Green

Hailing from the ethereal beauty of Kashmir, India, this boiled wool shawl is a testament to artisanal craftsmanship. The intricate designs are inspired by the ancient Mughal gardens of Kashmir, evolving into mysterious and elegant motifs with organic floral patterns that once captivated European nobility. Crafted from premium Kashmiri wool, the boiled wool technique results in a shawl that is both stunning and durable. It offers a sophisticated and stylish way to stay warm during winter, while also serving as an elegant layering piece for cooler office environments, ensuring you remain poised and chic wherever you go. Boiled wool is a unique process that leverages Kashmir's pristine environment. Woven shawls are boiled in pristine high-altitude snowmelt collected at sunrise and then air-dried under the moonlight at low temperatures after sunset, a cycle repeated for a week. This process compacts and densifies the wool, creating a rich texture that is exceptionally windproof and warm. It's also resistant to shrinkage and snags, ensuring remarkable durability. 🐑 Product Specifications Origin: Kashmir Material: 100% Kashmiri Wool Dimensions: 203 cm x 71 cm This is a purely handmade wool shawl.
