| Jamawar Wool Shawl in Jacquard Design 80" x 40" (jmwr648) by Great woolen shawl! | | Beautiful wool shawl. Really warm and really comfortable. Very soft, no hint of scratchiness that causes itching like a lot of other woolen scarves. The natural colours are perfect in the evenings. The detail in the main body is very intricate and elegant, while the edges are a perfect finish. The tassels are well made and stay very well. | | Jamawar Wool Shawl in Jacquard Design 80" x 40" (jmwr648) by Product Description | | The literal meaning of jamawar is "grown piece", the technical and trade name for a shawl cloth or long shawl. Such pieces are woven on loom and have an intricate pattern. The tapestry technique is used throughout for weaving jamawar. Briefly, the jamawar tapestry shawl has several elements such as various borders, woven panels, and embroidered fringes. The most striking feature is the floral design of small repeated patterns or stripes on the entire fields. According to Microcroft's long list of trade fabrics, there are an infinite number of designs met with in the jamawars, but he describes only three. The main two are rega-buta and kirkh-buties. Rega-buta involves small flower motifs, while kirkh-buties have large flower motifs. The third involves jaldars, patterns that assume net like forms. All these motifs are a repeat of the patterns described in literature and noticed in the eighteenth nineteenth century miniature paintings and costumes. |
