A very fine shawl with gold cotton embroidery on a fine red wool ground. A dochala is a long, rectangular Indian shawl, particularly favoured by men, which originated in Kashmir during the 17th to 19th centuries. Woven from fine wool, these highly prized shawls were originally worn by men to cover their entire bodies, but were later adapted and shortened to be draped over the shoulders. A dochala is characterized by intricate designs, often featuring floral motifs.
Excellent original condition with a few very small slight stains.
