Indian shawls from Kashmir in Motif Design

Kashmir is the homeland of a cottage industry dedicated to producting high-quality shawls like Paisley Shawls,Embroidered Shawls,Pashmina Shawls made from the finest indigenous lamb's wool and decorated with silk thread. Many floral motifs are used. A good shawl may take several months to produce and will fetch high prices. However the craftsmen of Kashmir remain poor, because the prices are still not realistic in terms of the man-hours cooperatives have been set up. The Handloom Industries Board and the Khadi Board have established emporia and outlets in the main Indian cities and generally promote the growth of the textile industry.
