Finely woven pure wool Indian shawl that has intricate workmanship of traditional Jamavar origin. Days of hard work go into the creation of each Jamavar design inspired shawl, with not more than an inch being added per hour in a full size shawl. The art of weaving Jamavar that grew and flourished in India tremendously and reached its zenith during the Mogul rule in India was brought to Kashmir from Persia (modern day Iran) many centuries ago.
Jamavar survived only as cherished heirlooms in a few homes of modern day India and museums. Jamavar weaving had mainly flourished when the craftsman's time and patience had been unlimited; when the superb quality of his work had brought him as much if not more satisfaction than the money he earned from it, when the patronage he enjoyed had been both discerning and magnanimous.
