Kalamkari Sui Shawl 45 x 90 inches approx

Kalamkari Sui Shawl — Handcrafted Kashmiri Heritage

An exquisite piece from Royal Orientals' Kashmiri collection, this Kalamkari Sui shawl brings together two revered traditions of the subcontinent — the fine needle (sui) embroidery of Kashmir and the flowing, hand-painted Kalamkari motif style. Each shawl is individually hand-worked, making every piece subtly unique.

Craftsmanship

The intricate sui embroidery is applied entirely by hand by skilled artisans, tracing detailed floral and paisley jaal (lattice) patterns across the fabric. This needlework technique has been passed down through generations of Kashmiri craftsmen and can take days of patient, meticulous labor per shawl.
