19th Century Hand-Woven Paisley Shawl
Located in Barrington, IL
An exquisite 19th-century hand-woven Paisley shawl from Northwest India, featuring an elegant color palette of brick red, ivory, black, and green. This historic textile showcases a finely detailed paisley border, with larger stylized boteh (paisley) motifs at each end. The central field is rendered in a contrasting solid black, creating a striking visual balance and framing the intricate design.
Originating from Kashmir, these shawls—sometimes called “Paisley” or “Piano” shawls—became highly fashionable in Europe during the Victorian era, especially after Queen Victoria popularized them. The design and craftsmanship of these Indian shawls later inspired the iconic production of similar pieces in Paisley, Scotland, throughout the 19th century.
This richly woven textile can be elegantly draped over a table or bed or displayed as a piece of wall art, making it an ideal statement in classic, bohemian, or globally inspired interiors. A rare and collectible piece of textile history that combines cultural heritage with timeless style.
Dimensions: 62” x 64”
