About the Item
This antique Kashmiri wool shawl features a striking vertical stripe layout filled with colorful boteh (paisley) motifs, woven in soft reds, greens, blues, and ivory. The striped field is both lively and refined, showcasing a traditional design favored in Kashmir during the late 19th century, often created for export to European markets. The boteh motifs, rendered with gentle asymmetry, echo the region’s rich textile vocabulary and are woven with careful attention to detail.
Crafted using the kani weaving technique, the piece is likely a panel shawl or long stole—light enough to wear, yet beautiful enough to display. The vibrant palette and rhythmic patterning give this textile a versatile charm, ideal for decorators looking to introduce texture and history into a space or for collectors drawn to the elegance of Kashmiri wool.
In nice antique condition with minor wear and a few scattered thread pulls, this textile comes from the private collection of a prominent antique rug dealer in Amherst, MA.
