An extraordinarily fine example of the 1850-70s Victorian Era Kashmir Paisley Shawl Fashion. This HUGE shawl has complete coverage with a multi-colored paisley design tightly packed into the final red center. With green selvages, you can glimpse the fine fibers of the silk warp and the wool hand-woven design. There are virtually no flaws, except a detached border of 3" fabric & fibers still intact, easy to mend - see photos for details. Priced as-is.

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in New Haven, Connecticut.
