THE JAMAVAAR is inspired by a rare and rapidly vanishing art of weaving that originated in ancient Persia and found its way to the northern Indian state of Kashmir sometime in the 15th century. This expensive and intricate web of handcrafted warp and weft threads is used to make the most stunning stoles, more popularly known as Jamavaar shawls in India. The Jamavaar was a prized possession of kings and nobility through Indian Mughal history finding its way to European aristocracy in the 18th century. Ladies of the court adorned themselves in hand-woven stoles in bright and elegant multi-colored motifs that ranged from paisleys to flora and fauna borrowed from nature.
The art of the Jamavaar was kept alive through royal patronage that encouraged the talent and skill behind this painstaking form of weaving. With the passage of time and the rapid onslaught of industrialization, this beautiful technique is vanishing into antiquity.
AP Limited Editions pays tribute to the tradition of THE JAMAVAAR, explored through the brilliant colors of Russian Miniature Art from the school of Palekh.
THE JAMAWAR is "Pen World Best of 2012" Nominee.
