"Exceptional 19th Century Cashmere Shawl "
Exceptional cashmere shawl. With central butterfly wing pattern. In a black and white frame that evokes the Taj Mahal (white side) and the Black Taj Mahal (black) which should have, according to legend, been built opposite each other on the other bank of the river. The quality of the weaving is perfect. The elegance of the patterns, perfectly balanced. IN ADDITION, OUR SHAWL HAS A STAMP ON THE REVERSE: "GREAT MEDAL, PARIS LONDON EXHIBITION, PURE CASHMERE" which allows us to believe that this model was awarded a prize at a universal exhibition. Good condition. Perfect colors. Cuts.
