• • Material: Authentic Kullu shawls are primarily made from pure wool, including local sheep wool, merino wool, angora, or pashmina blends, ensuring excellent warmth and durability. Yak hair is also used in some varieties.
  • Design: The body of the shawl often features natural wool colors like grey, black, off-white, or fawn, with the main design element being the intricate, multi-colored geometric patterns (Kulvi motifs) woven into the borders using bright acrylic or woollen yarns.
  • Technique: They are created using a specialized tapestry weaving technique on traditional looms, where short lengths of colored weft yarn are manually manipulated to create the designs. This labor-intensive process means no continuous thread runs from one end of the design to the other, which is a key indicator of genuine handwoven quality.
  • Versatility: Kullu shawls are available for both men (often called 'lohi' or 'dushala') and women, and their generous size makes them versatile for draping over traditional or modern winter wear
