Russian Shawls: a long evolution
Shawls are known since antiquity, and during the development in the technologies and the requirements of their
owners, they passed from a utility accessory to an element of mode, particularly in Russia.
The current Russian Shawls have their origins in the shawls of the Cashmere which imposed themself to the
occident on 18th and 19th century.
As often, a new product provokes inspirations, then evolves in new directions. It is what the Russians made from
the cashmere shawls, and having changed techniques and subjects, they developed a typically Slavonic style, as the
emblematic "Russian Beauty" shawl.
The making of the Russian shawls:
Using an already ancestral know-how, the Russian factories used a traditional
material, available in big quantity: the combed sheep wool.
Although different from goat's down, its qualities in term of softness, heat and adaptation to mechanical
manufacturing are very good.
Rather than to carry out the designs in embroidery, the Russian manufactures adapted the tapestry manufactoring
processes to the shawls manufacture, which enabled them to produce shawls in sufficient quantity and excellent
quality.
Of course, the single and distinctive charm of the Russian shawls comes from their exceptional design: a empty
center of dark color or sharp color, a broad garland of stylized flowers with bright colors, and especially a
splendid silk or wool fringe.
The women love them, therefore. And the men, it's known, love seeing their partner coated in a cosy and
aesthetic shawl. That is why the Russian Shawls always constitute a present of choice, to give or to offer to
yourself …
