Handwoven Ari Shawl

Whether it's protecting you from the sun or keeping you warm on cool summer nights, the Handwoven Ari Shawl is a fantastic accessory for the warmer months.

This lightweight shawl was hand-spun on a traditional loom. Hand weaving is an intricate, time-consuming process that results in richly textured fabrics. Every step of the process is handmade, from the spinning of the thread to weaving the cloth and even finishing the details on each of the products. 

This shawl is available in multiple colours - Sky, Grey and Pale Pink. You can purchase your Handwoven Ari Shawl here.
