A black Kashmiri pheran in soft Kashmilon, with Kashmiri Aari embroidery in rose pink and marigold orange. The work runs around the V-neck placket and down a long centre-front panel, with matching scalloped borders at the cuffs, side slits and hem, so the colour stands out sharply against the black.

What you are getting
- Black Kashmilon pheran with a long, loose traditional cut and full sleeves
- Rose pink and marigold embroidery around the V-neck placket
- Embroidered panel running down the centre front
- Scalloped borders at both cuffs, along the side slits and around the hem

About the threadwork: the embroidery is Kashmiri Aari, a chain stitch that sits slightly raised on the cloth, which gives it a texture a print never has. Small variations in thread placement between pieces are normal.
About Kashmilon: Kashmilon (also spelt Cashmilon) is a soft acrylic weave. It is not wool, cashmere or pashmina, and we label it as acrylic. It is light, warm for its weight and can be washed gently at home.
