The Craft
Made by hand.
Row by row.
Kani weaving is one of the most technically demanding textile arts in the world. Each shawl is woven using dozens — sometimes over 150 — individual hand-held wooden bobbins called kanis, each loaded with a different colour thread.
The weaver follows a coded notation called the talim, building patterns directly into the fabric. No printing. No embroidery. The design is the weave itself.
6 to 18 months per shawl
One centimetre of a complex Jamawar can take a full day to weave. There is no shortcut.
The talim — weaving's sheet music
A coded instruction system passed down through generations of master craftspeople.
Kanihama — the craft's heartland
The village of Kanihama in Kashmir's Budgam district has practised Kani weaving for 500+ years.
Why Kanishawls
Directly from the weavers
We work directly with master weavers in Kanihama and Srinagar. No agents, no middlemen, no compromise on authenticity.
GI Certified Authentic
Every shawl comes with Geographical Indication documentation confirming it was woven in the Kashmir Valley. The same legal protection as Champagne.
Direct Manufacturer
We are the manufacturers — not traders. We work directly with weaving families in Kanihama and Srinagar. Factory prices, full quality control.
500 Years of Design
Our designs follow the Mughal-era vocabulary — boteh, flowering plants, vine borders — executed by craftspeople who learned from their parents.
Flexible Wholesale
Minimum orders from just 10 pieces. Custom designs and private label available for established buyers. Bulk pricing up to 500+ pieces.
Ships Worldwide
We serve buyers in 40+ countries across Europe, North America, the Gulf, and Asia. We handle all export documentation and customs requirements.
Ethical Sourcing
Every purchase directly supports weaving families who keep this 500-year-old craft alive. We pay fair wages and invest in the next generation.
