Placing the soft Pashmina fabric on their knees, the artisans of Kashmir delicately stitch entire gardens, or Baagh, into the woolen shawls. A tedious task, done with immense focus, makes Kalamkari Pashminas a truly regal traditional Indian wear. This pure Pashmina shawl has been beautifully wreathed in silk threads, from one end to the other, after being hand painted by brushes known as Kalams.
The woolen canvas of Pashmina is first painted with lovely patterns, which are then outlined and threaded with soft silk, to bring a Kalamkari Pashmina to life. Classic motifs such as Paisley, flora, and floral vines are used in profusion in this gorgeous shawl, with colors that ooze luxuriousness. A vision of a lush garden in the lap of Kashmir’s valleys comes to mind, as one is wrapped in this marvelous handcrafted jewel, which is symbolic of India’s opulence and regalia.
