RIOTOUS GARDENS OF ENCHANTING FLOWERS
two masterpieces of the weaver’s art – woven jamawar shawls with stripes and borders.
above: a schiaparelli pink shawl is woven with a border of pavement stripes in violet, scarlet and blue. the body of the shawl has sun flowers in a variety of blues, violets, scarlet and oranges.
below: its sister shawl has border stripes in dark red, ochre shades and sunny yellow. the flowers all over the shawl have a mango-paisley motif and are prettily detailed in white, soft ochre and pinks, together with a green leaf.
the creation of such complex patterns purely through weaving is an old and almost vanished art, making these shawls extremely special pieces.
