In the 16th century, during the Mughal rule in Kashmir—the birthplace of Pashmina—this luxurious fabric was discovered. The Mughal emperors were captivated by its sheer beauty. Pashmina shawls represent the rich heritage and exceptional craftsmanship of Kashmir. The process of creating a Pashmina shawl is painstakingly slow, requiring immense skill and patience. Depending on the intricacy of the design, a single shawl can take weeks or even months to complete. This artisanal tradition has been passed down through generations.
