Hand-woven cashmere needle-embroidered shawl (white/turquoise)

This beautiful shawl is made from a nuanced, calm white fabric and features intricate hand-embroidered exotic motifs and leaf-shaped lines in vibrant turquoise thread.
Woven from extremely fine threads, the cashmere has an exquisite feel to it, with beautiful drape, and the delicate hand embroidery gives the entire stole a glossy finish, making this a special piece that will make you feel elegant when you wear it.
The process of making a single shawl begins with spinning raw wool into fine thread, then goes through the steps of several specialist craftsmen in each step, such as meticulous hand weaving on a loom, dyeing, and applying embroidery patterns to the fabric, before finally being delivered to a hand embroiderer.
The ultra-delicate and intricate hand embroidery is the result of traditional techniques that have been carefully cultivated in Kashmir, the place of production. It is said that Napoleon brought it back from his expedition and it became a big hit among European ladies.
No doubt everyone was moved when they held it in their hands, by the artistic beauty of the hand embroidery, the feel and drape of the finest hand-woven cashmere.
Portraits from that time show European ladies wearing Kashmir shawls as part of their dresses.
While the number of people carrying on these traditional arts is decreasing year by year, Kashmir shawls, woven using rare traditional techniques, are still loved by those who appreciate their value.
It can be used in three seasons other than midsummer: autumn, winter, and spring.
