Handmade Manila Embroidered Shawl. Natural Silk. Ref. 1010621RJCOVLT

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.

The Manila shawl is strongly associated with flamenco dance and Andalusian folklore, although it is an accessory of the

dress, also used by the singers and, in some periods, it has been used as an everyday garment.

The production is completely artisanal; only the hands of the artisans touch the products, no machines participate.

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.

Composition: Natural Silk.

Approximate measurements: 135 x 135 cm

Fringes: 51 cm (netting 17 cm + fringe 34 cm).
