Jamawar Shawl

Nepali jamawar shawl is a traditional shawl made of high-quality wool, typically found in Nepal and the surrounding regions. The shawl is hand-woven using intricate patterns that are inspired by the Mughal era designs. These patterns are typically made using silk threads that are embroidered onto the wool fabric, creating a beautiful and luxurious finish.
The wool used in Nepali jamawar shawls is of the highest quality and is sourced from the Himalayan region, making it extremely warm and soft. The shawl is typically large in size, measuring around 80 inches in length and 40 inches in width, making it perfect for wrapping around the body to keep warm.

The jamawar shawl is known for its rich and vibrant colors, often featuring bold hues such as red, blue, green, and gold. The intricate patterns and designs are woven using a special technique known as 'jamawar' weaving, which involves interlacing threads of different colors to create a unique and eye-catching design.

Nepali jamawar shawls are often worn on special occasions such as weddings, religious ceremonies, and other formal events. They are also popular as gifts, as they are considered a luxurious and elegant item that can be cherished for years to come.

Overall, the Nepali jamawar shawl is a beautiful and intricate piece of traditional Nepali craft that showcases the skill and expertise of the weavers who create them.

Centuries-Old Lost-Wax Metal Casting

Each sculpture at Handmade Handicraft is crafted using the ancient cire-perdue (lost-wax) technique, a craft perfected over a millennium by the Newar artisans of Patan. The process begins with sculpting beeswax and Himalayan tree resin by hand. A multi-layered clay mold is formed around the wax, which is melted away in the furnace, creating a void that is filled with molten red copper or bronze.
