Peshawari Shawls for Women

Peshawari Shawl for Ladies with Price

Black Embroidered Pashmina Shawl

The black embroidered pashmina shawl is a pashmina blend, softer and lighter than plain wool for the warmth it gives. The embroidery follows Kashmiri designs: floral patterns, paisley (buta) motifs, climbing vines and decorative borders in multicolour thread. On a black ground the colours stand out, which makes it the choice for weddings, mehndi and formal evenings.

It is a pashmina blend, not 100% pashmina. Dry cleaning is recommended to keep the fabric soft and the thread colours bright.

7 Flowers Ladies Winter Shawl

The 7 Flowers winter shawl has a cream base with a seven flower embroidered pattern and red and pink roses worked along the border. It measures 2.29 m by 1.14 m (90 by 45 inches), long enough to wrap round the shoulders or cover the head.

The light base goes with most colours of shalwar kameez, so it suits daytime dawats, office and university wear, and daily use through the winter.

Which Peshawari Shawl for Ladies Suits the Occasion?

Choose the black embroidered shawl for weddings and evening functions, and the cream 7 Flowers shawl for daytime wear or a gift.

• Weddings, mehndi and evening functions. The black embroidered shawl, worn over a plain or dark outfit.
• Daytime and everyday winter wear. The 7 Flowers shawl, which matches light and bright outfits.
• A gift for a mother, wife, sister or daughter. The 7 Flowers is the easier colour to match if you do not know her wardrobe.

The same wrap is also called a Peshawari shawl for girls or a Peshawari chadar for ladies. Chadar is the everyday word for a large shawl in Pakistan. A stole is a narrower wrap worn round the neck and shoulders, and is not what is sold on this page.

How to Care for an Embroidered Shawl

An embroidered shawl lasts longest with dry cleaning, no wringing and flat drying in the shade.

• Dry clean the black pashmina blend shawl rather than washing it at home.
• Never wring a shawl. Press water out gently and dry it flat in the shade.
• Store it folded in a dry cotton bag, not on a hanger, which stretches the shoulders.
• Keep perfume and hair spray off the embroidery, as they can mark the thread.
