NEW DELHI: The Splendor of Kashmir by Varuna Anand proudly showcased its exquisite collection of handcrafted Pashmina shawls at Le Méridien, New Delhi.
The exhibition celebrated the legacy of Kashmiri textile artistry through an elegant display of hand-embroidered Sui Kaam Jamavars and traditional Kani Shawls — each a unique heirloom creation reflecting centuries of craftsmanship, cultural heritage, and refined elegance.
