The composition of this meditation shawl includes 35% angora wool. This gives an additional softness to the shawl and shine to all the tones. Its border is simple and pleasant.
As mentioned in the description of other ethnic shawls, this shawl is a living testimony of the Himalayan culture.
Traditionally, we recognised where a person came from by the motif we found on his shawl or hat. Each motif represented a region of the Himalayas. The motif was also the vibratory depiction of the god or goddess who watched over this region. Nowadays, the distinction of regions by patterns is not so alive and different regions produce a variety of patterns.
When we walk in this area we very often see, ladies, sometimes men, sitting on the covered balcony of their houses weaving these magnificent shawls. They continue the ancestral tradition of this valley and sell them to the manufacturers who then share them with the world.

HOW TO WASH YOUR SHAWL SAFELY:
Dissolve a little quantity of mild detergent - like gentle shampoo or woolen soap - with cold or lukewarm water (at 30 °C /86 °F maximum)
Submerge the shawl in the water and move it gently for a few minutes. Do not use fabric softener and rinse the shawl very well by running cool water through it to remove the soap.
You can then take out extra water by applying gentle pressure. NEVER RING, NEVER TWIST.
Remove the excess water by rolling the shawl in a clean towel.
Preferably lay it flat. If not possible, fold it once or twice to prevent the fibres to be stretched too much and hang it on the clothes line in avoiding direct sun or any proximity to heat sources.
Once dry, if available, the shawl can be steamed which will fluff the fibres. Otherwise, it can be ironed with a warm iron.
Please note that many of our shawls and blankets are handspun and handmade of natural fibers, so occasional irregularities may occur in the weave or embroidery. These should not be considered as imperfections; rather they enhance the individuality of each piece.

Beautiful shawl - lovely subtle textile pattern woven into the shawl was an added bonus I hadn't noticed in the pictures. the color is rich and exactly as pictured. I'd say if you are looking for an excellent meditation shawl that is long and wide enough to cover you completely as you are sitting,this is it!
Love this shawl so much. It arrived in a timely manner and well packaged, which was good because the package looked like it had a rough time in transit so the reliable packing was a blessing. The shawl is soft and beautiful and it's easily already one of my favorite pieces. I hope to buy others from this shop in the future.
