The conversation of the house, unspooled.

Srinagar · Delhi · Dubai

House of Pashmina. Kashmir. Combed, never shorn.

Nilofer @nilofer · This morning

Combed, never shorn.

Nilofer @nilofer · Yesterday

A shawl is not an accessory. In Kashmir it is an inheritance.

Nilofer @nilofer · Harud

Autumn, the season of the shawl. Fifteen pieces, each named for the valley.

Nilofer @nilofer · The Edit

SATRANG. A short film. Look, weave, drape.

Nilofer @nilofer · The house

Nilofer, the water lily. Rooted in the lake bed, open to the light. That is how we make things here.

Nilofer @nilofer · Pashmina

The soft gold of the mountain, opened thread by thread.

Nilofer @nilofer · Nilofer Cares

The makers are named. The girl child is taught. The fibre is combed.

Nilofer @nilofer · A note

Made slowly. Kept for generations.
