Bio

"Hello. My name is Sandeep but friends and family call me Prince. I really don't know how I got this name, and I never bothered to ask, because I enjoy it.

 

"I was born and brought up in Delhi, where I completed all my schooling, then earned a degree at Delhi University. While in school, I was the 'head boy,' so that was really cool. I had lots of fun, but I also had to take on many responsibilities.

 

"My family has worked with textiles since 1968. In 1991, while I was still studying, I began to get involved in my family's endeavors. After graduating, I partnered with my family in our workshop. My father looks after the yarn spinning, and I handle the making of the textiles.

 

"We design and create shawls, throws, stoles, cushion covers, table mats, curtains, and more. Some 30 artisans collaborate with us now.

 

"It is a great opportunity for us to be associated with you. I hope that through this partnership, our family textile business will reach new heights.

 

"The original jamawar textiles were made by hand. All the motifs were painstakingly done using needle and thread, and it took years to complete one shawl. Due to the intricacy and time it took to make, it was expensive and only the rich and royals could afford it. In Southeast Asia, it was considered a mark of royalty. It was not until the jacquard loom was invented in the late 18th century that jamawar become more affordable and more popular."

    the perfect shawl(s)
    I ordered a shawl with a black background and paisley design which I wore to our 50th wedding anniversary. Light weight, it draped perfectly over my simple dress and I received many compliments. Somehow, some moths made some holes that winter. I was lucky -- they munched along a line in the middle of the shawl so I made a French seam there. But i also bought another shawl -- similar design in different colors. And I use both shawls regularly. They turn a simple outfit into something really special!!

    It''s not just a shawl, it's a work of art!
    I bought this to give as a Christmas gift. Having seen it, though, I almost hate to give it away. Fortunately it's going to a good friend. The design, colors and craftsmanship are beautiful and the fabric is wonderfully soft. It''s not just a shawl, it's a work of art.

    Stunning wool shawl!
    My mother passed away and I had a Navy dress I wanted to wear to the funeral, but it was sleeveless...too cold for Wisconsin in April. I tried to find a sweater or shrug, but everything looked frumpy. Then my Jamawar wool shawl came in the mail. It was perfect! I appreciated the hand written note from Sandeep Malhotra, the artisan. Thank you for helping me feel my best on an important day.

    This shawl is ultra-lightweight, which makes it easy to wear. It sits on my shoulders without weighing me down. The colors are rich and very dark. It is beyond beautiful.

    Cute Stocking
    Super cute stocking at a great price! My only issue with it is the hanger is pretty thin so it won't hold anything heavy. I'll just have to reinforce it with something. Otherwise, I'm happy with my purchase!

    Absolute perfection
    The shawl is beautifully made. The colors in the photo are exactly what you see in real life. The shawl is perfect for all but the coldest days and can be worn inside over a dress without being too warm. I have one for myself and gave another for a gift. Many people comment on how beautiful it is.

    Lovely, classy and warm woolen shawl
    I prolonged buying this shawl for quite a while but finally decided to get it, and am so glad that I did! It's a lovely addition to an outfit and at the same time, keeps me warm. The wool is fine but not itchy, and the colors match both black and brown outfits. It's really a great useful fashion accessory!

    soft and warm comfort
    While a shawl alone won't keep you warm up in the snows of the Himalayas, this amazingly soft and warm and beautiful Jamawar style shawl is so comforting in a cold or damp or foggy evening winter evening in California or spring, summer and autumn evening up the Rockies. The pattern is lovely, harking back to the Mughal designs, and the colors muted enough to match so many things.I love it!

    Beautiful and Stunning Craftsmanship
    I bought this for my wife as a Christmas gift, and she absolutely adores it. We traveled to India a few months later and she brought it with her, and while we bought a few more scarves and shawls while there this remains her favorite due to the beautiful colors and patterns worked into this piece of art.

    Good quality shawl.
    The shawl is warm for the weight, the colors are deep and rich, however, based on the photograph, I expected the material to have a slight shimmer. nevertheless, I am pleased with this purchase.

    This shawl was worth the wait. The photo in the catalog and online are beautiful but just can't due justice to the item in your hands. So intricate and delicate, almost sheer in spots, it is really something special!
