Cream Pashmina Shawl

Parsi embroidery is a unique part of India’s diverse textile heritage. This unique artistic tradition has its roots in Iran during the Bronze Age but with time it has drew influences from European, Chinese, Persian and Indian culture. Realistically pictorial, lyrically composed, aesthetically colorful and delicately embellished Parsi embroidery is an emblem of style and elegance. While the border is designed with Ari stitch. With definitive Persian origin, Ari embroidery produces a rich textire on the surface of the fabric achieved by intricate embroidery done with a special needle called “Aar”.  The thread is introduced fom below the fabric and picked up by the needle at the top, creating concentric rings of chain stitch. Not only are they possessions of pride and glamour, this beautifully hand weaved shawl is worth more than the rest of the entire family wardrobe put together!
