Kalamkari Pashmina Shawl - exquisite piece of art with history 

size: (200 cm x 100 cm)

A Treasure of Kashmiri Textile Artistry
Far more than a luxury accessory, this deep-blue shawl is a true handcrafted masterpiece, born from months of dedication and ancestral know-how.  
The Essence of Kalamkari: From Pen to Needle
Kalamkari merges two distinct stages of highly specialized handcraftsmanship:  
 Kalam (The Pen): The drawing stage. Using a traditional bamboo pen, the master artisan hand-draws intricate floral motifs and delicate paisley lace directly onto the pashmina.  
 Kari (The Embroidery): The sculpting stage. Stitch by stitch, each drawn outline is brought to life through meticulous hand chain-stitching, adding rich texture, depth, and vibrant expression.  
Product Details
 Material: 100% Pure Cashmere / Pashmina (ultra-soft feel with an elegant drape).  
 Size: Generous Shawl format — 200 cm x 100 cm.  
 Craftsmanship: 100% Handmade in Kashmir, India (authentic Kalam drawing and Kari embroidery).  
 Design: Featuring vibrant multicolor floral embroidery, framed by exquisitely detailed decorative borders.  
Why Choose This Shawl?
 Magnificent Proportions: The full shawl dimensions (200 cm x 100 cm) wrap you in effortless elegance, allowing for majestic draping.  
 One-of-a-Kind Artistry: Because every line and stitch is made entirely by hand, no two shawls are ever identical.  
 Weightless Warmth: Pure cashmere fibers deliver superior thermal comfort while feeling light and soft against the skin.

The story of this piece
Kalamkari joins two crafts: kalam, the pen, and kari, the handwork. This deep-blue shawl is one of the richest pieces in the collection: its floral field and decorated borders were drawn freehand with a bamboo pen, then embroidered stitch by stitch in fine chain-stitch. Months of work, one piece, no copy.
