Description
This is a distinctive and warm piece, pairing the practical comfort of a popular winter textile with one of the most romantic traditional embroidery designs. The shawl is crafted from Marina, a durable and substantial fabric favored for its soft, plush texture and excellent insulating properties, ensuring a comfortable and cozy drape during cooler months.
The colour chosen for this shawl is a rich, natural green colour. This shade, which can range from a deep forest tone to a vibrant moss hue, is immediately captivating and adds a touch of natural elegance to any attire. Green is a versatile color that harmonizes beautifully with both earth tones and brighter accent colors.
The true focus of this garment is the Gulabkaar design karhai (rose embroidery). The term Gulabkaar literally translates to “rose worker” or “rose design,” indicating that the hand-needlework is centered on intricate, stylized rose blossoms and often includes their accompanying leaves and vines. Unlike geometric or abstract patterns, this floral design brings a soft, feminine, and detailed aesthetic to the shawl. The meticulous karhai is typically executed with fine, contrasting threads that breathe life into the blossoms, making the roses appear to bloom across the field of the soft Marina green.
The blending of the practical, warm Marina base with the stunning, delicate artistry of the Gulabkaar design creates a statement shawl that is both supremely wearable and inherently luxurious.
