Rich, deep, and regal, this wine-toned Pashmina stole is a statement of classic sophistication. The richness of the underneath base - Pashm - is artistically enhanced by handwoven flower and paisley motifs that bloom in contrasting hues on a colorful palla that flows from the opulent foundation. This stole, which continues the centuries-old craft of Kashmiri handweaving, is more than simply an ornament; it is a living example of slow, sustainable design. Its warmth and plush demeanour make it ideal for festive celebrations and evening get-togethers, giving each drape a refined charm.

About the Craft
Kani weave is a traditional tapestry-style weaving technique from Kashmir, India, renowned for its intricacy and heritage. It is primarily used to create exquisite handwoven patterns on fine Pashmina fabric, particularly shawls that are celebrated worldwide for their artistry. The word Kani comes from the small, eyeless wooden sticks, or “kanis,” which replace the regular shuttle in weaving. Each kani carries a different color of thread, and the weaver uses them to interlace the colored wefts with extraordinary precision, forming motifs of flowers, paisleys, and Mughal-inspired gardens. 
The process is guided by a coded design script called talim, which the weaver follows line by line, much like reading a musical notation. This makes the craft not only labor-intensive but also intellectually demanding, requiring both skill and patience. A single Kani shawl can take several months to over a year to complete, depending on the complexity of the design.

Pashmina Care
Always dry clean your pure Pashmina for the safest care. But if hand washing, use cold water and Pashmina/Cashmere shampoo. Do not wring or twist. Always squeeze the water out gently. Dry your Pashmina by placing it between two clean towels and rolling them together. Air dry, do not hang. Do not place it under direct sunlight for drying. 
Store your Pashmina at a clean, dry place. To keep it safe from moths, fold it neatly, wrap it in a muslin cloth, and store it with neem or cedar. Pashmina will last for generations if handled with care.

Before you receive your Pashmina, Please Note:
Authentic Pashmina is woven and embroidered by artisans manually. There can be irregularities in weave or embroidery showing the meticulous manual work of artisans. Note that these are not flaws but marks of authenticity that make your piece truly one of a kind
