Hand Embroidered Silk Manila Shawl 135x130 cm 55 cm Fringes Flamenco

We present a classic example of a Manila shawl, made of natural silk with high-density hand embroidery. This accessory is a fundamental piece of traditional and professional Spanish attire.

The Manila shawl, although of Oriental origin, established itself in the 19th century as a symbol of Andalusian culture. Its creation requires exceptional technical skill, where the floral design is executed through precise silk stitches on a canvas of the same material, maintaining the same visual finish on both sides.
