About Silk Jamavars Shawls Specialty

As late as the 18^th century, jamavar shawls from India were hand woven using different color bobbins .The name was sign of highest ranking jamavar shawls. Now  the hand weaving of that type of intricately designed jamavar shawl is no longer commercially viable, since one shawl would take a craftsman weaver months or  years, to complete.   Now Silk Jamavar shawls today are by us  and is liked by all  due to rare craftsmanship which is difficult to replicate though many try to copy us. 

Silk jamavars are the original kashmiri shawls, responsible for the love affair that has been going on for centuries. Due to automation, complexity and time needed to produce a fine shawl their production has gone down significantly over the past 150 years. Today, though not obsolete, they are very rare, and there is only a limited number of weavers dedicated to their production.
