Pashmina shawls are the epitome of Kashmiri luxury. Crafted from the fine wool of the Pashmina goat, these shawls are known for their exceptional softness, warmth, and lightweight quality. The weaving process involves spinning the wool into a delicate yarn and weaving it on traditional looms. Many Pashmina shawls feature intricate hand-embroidered patterns such as Sozni or Kani. Sozni embroidery involves meticulous needlework that creates detailed floral or geometric designs, while Kani shawls are made using a special weaving technique that produces a more elaborate and colorful pattern. Each shawl can take several weeks to complete, making it a highly valued and often heirloom-quality piece.
