Nishaat Classic Flowering Vines Shawl

S.04.0042.01.04.06.00006
This 100% hand embroidered Kashmir shawl has been the creation of a master craftsman inspired by late 17th century motifs and designs of the Mogul era. The Himalayan ranges that surround Kashmir valley are a constant source of inspiration for artists, however being able to capture the beauty of high altitude summer in the mountain ranges can be a challenge as it is a contrast in itself. With flowering motifs and vines, the embroidery reflects summer but using colors that are earthy our artist has been able to capture some of the starkness that exists above the tree line in the Himalayan ranges. Created using earthy colors, this 100% hand embroidered shawl captures the beauty of the high altitude Himalayas which lie above the tree-line. The earth tones used in this shawl captures beautifully a high altitude summer where the air is always cold and the wind blows strong, with just hints of color in the center of the flowers indicating that summer is still on. This shawl is perfect for a late summer or fall evening when the air gets crisper and nature’s colors start to turn more golden and earthy. Color: Black Kashmir wool base with embroidery primarily in earthy shades of brown and green. The flowers have small light pink centers.
