Description
Most cashmere shawls sold online come from Nepal - styled to look Kashmiri, priced to imply it. This one actually is. Woven in the Kashmir Valley, where the craft has been practised for six hundred years and artisan families pass the knowledge from generation to generation.
The Ganges founding team visited Kashmir directly, working with artisan co-operatives to handpick each piece. This blue floral shawl - with its heritage paisley motifs and intricate woven border - is one of them. One piece, individually chosen.
Why This Shawl
-
Cashmere-merino blend - the softness and warmth of cashmere with the durability and shape-retention of merino. Lightweight at 159g.
-
196 × 72cm - generous enough to drape as a shawl, wrap as a scarf, or fold over one shoulder. Three looks from one piece.
-
Heritage blue floral pattern - woven-in paisley and floral motifs in the Kashmiri tradition. Not printed. Not applied.
-
Genuine Kashmir origin - sourced directly from artisan co-operatives in the Kashmir Valley, not from Nepal or other imitative regions.
- Dry clean only.
Is $139.95 the right price?
