The Art of Kashmiri Cashmere Embroidery
A hand embroidered cashmere scarf or shawl brings together two of Kashmir's celebrated textile traditions: fine Cashmere and Pashmina weaving and intricate hand embroidery. Each piece becomes a canvas for artisans who build floral vines, paisleys, borders and traditional Kashmiri motifs stitch by stitch.
Fine cashmere becomes a canvas for embroidery — each stitch carrying
the hand and tradition of the artisan who created it.
Our collection includes embroidered cashmere scarves, shawls and wraps featuring different forms of Kashmiri decorative work. From restrained borders and individual motifs to elaborate all-over designs, the amount of handwork varies from piece to piece, making each embroidered cashmere creation distinctive.
Sozni
Fine needle embroidery
Jali
Delicate open-style embroidery
Tilla
Traditional metallic thread work
Jamawar
Elaborate decorative embroidery
Sozni embroidery is particularly associated with Kashmir's fine needlework tradition. Skilled artisans work with a needle and fine thread to create detailed floral and paisley motifs, sometimes spending weeks or months completing a single heavily embroidered piece.
Alongside Sozni, this collection brings together other Kashmiri embroidery traditions including Jali, Tilla and Jamawar. This makes the Cashmere Embroidery collection a place to explore different styles of Kashmiri handwork across scarves, shawls and wraps.
Pure Kashmir: Our embroidered cashmere collection celebrates the work of Kashmiri artisans and the specialist textile traditions that have been passed through generations.
Frequently Asked Questions About Embroidered Cashmere
What is an embroidered cashmere scarf?
An embroidered cashmere scarf combines fine Cashmere or Pashmina fabric with traditional hand embroidery. Kashmiri artisans use techniques such as Sozni and Jali to create delicate floral, paisley and traditional motifs by hand.
Are Pure Kashmir cashmere scarves embroidered by hand?
Our traditional embroidered pieces are made by skilled Kashmiri artisans using specialist embroidery techniques. Designs range from subtle motifs and borders to intricate all-over embroidery.
What types of Kashmiri embroidery are used on cashmere?
Kashmiri embroidery includes Sozni needlework, Jali embroidery, Tilla work and elaborate Jamawar-style embroidery. Each technique has its own character, from extremely fine needlework to richly decorated statement pieces.
What is the difference between an embroidered cashmere scarf and shawl?
The main difference is size and how the piece is worn. An embroidered cashmere scarf is narrower and designed primarily for styling around the neck, while a cashmere shawl provides greater coverage and allows larger borders and embroidery patterns.
How should I care for embroidered cashmere?
Because both the cashmere fabric and embroidery are delicate, professional dry cleaning is generally recommended. Store the piece folded in a clean, dry place and avoid hanging it for long periods, which can stretch fine cashmere.
