Each piece is unique and has been crafted with care and quality in a small Family-run workshop in Kashmir. It takes more than one person to finish one of these bedspreads and usually (depends on the piece and type of needlework) 2-4 weeks. The work is divided into cutting and tailoring, needlework by the artisan, dying of the woolen thread with natural (vegetable) colors, and special washing-finishing so that the colors will last a lifetime.
