Description
Bordados Foronda is the oldest house in Seville dedicated to the manufacture of embroidered shawls. Currently, Bordados
Foronda has manufactured Manila shawls for the Spanish Royal Family, as well as for other European Royal Houses.

Both the embroidery and the fringes are made by hand.
All shawls are made from authentic natural silk, stitch by stitch, with all the love that our
women from Andalusia are capable of giving and finished with the unmistakable grace of the Sevillian fringe.
