Fine, Soft Wool Kashmiri Hand Embroidered Stole.Kashmiri stoles and shawls are popular for their warmth, softness and appeal. The embroidery worked on some of them is a special to Kashmir. 'Sozni' or needlework is generally done in a panel along the sides of the shawl. Other unique types of needle embroidery include Papier Mache` work because of the design and the style in which it is executed and the 'Ari' or hook embroidery where floral motifs are finely worked in concentric rings of chain stitch.
