Why We Do Custom Orders: How Shaza Turns Heirloom Shawls into Modern Keepsakes

Every Pashmina shawl holds a story — a whisper of heritage, artistry, and love woven into every thread. At Shaza, we believe such heirlooms deserve to be celebrated, not stored away. That’s why we offer custom redesign and embroidery services, transforming old or vintage shawls into timeless modern keepsakes — while preserving their soul.

The Emotion Behind Every Thread

For generations, Pashminas have been more than accessories — they’ve been symbols of affection, tradition, and grace. Many families own pieces passed down through mothers and grandmothers, often adorned with intricate embroidery or delicate motifs.

However, time can wear down even the finest Pashmina — a small tear, fading colour, or a style that no longer fits today’s aesthetic. That’s where Shaza steps in — not just to restore fabric, but to revive memories.

From Heritage to Modern Elegance

Our artisans understand that every shawl is unique. Whether it’s a classic hand-embroidered Jama, a Kalamkari masterpiece, or a simple handwoven heirloom, each piece is handled with respect and creativity.

Through custom design consultations, we reimagine your shawl into something that complements your lifestyle — a stole, cape, jacket, or even a border-adorned wrap. Every detail, from colour balance to embroidery placement, is thoughtfully planned so that the essence of the original remains intact.

We only charge for artisan labour and design work — your material and memories remain yours.

Preserving Craftsmanship, Not Replacing It

Unlike mass alterations, Shaza’s customization process is deeply artisanal. Each transformation is guided by our heritage craftspeople, who blend age-old hand embroidery techniques with a modern aesthetic sense.

Whether it’s reviving dulled threads, reworking worn-out edges, or adding new embroidery to complement old motifs — our goal is to enhance, not overwrite. The result? A refreshed Pashmina that continues your family’s story for another generation.

Why Custom Orders Matter to Us

We do custom orders because we understand the emotional bond between you and your Pashmina.
It’s not just about fashion — it’s about identity, nostalgia, and continuity.

Every time we restore or redesign an heirloom shawl, we see the joy it brings back — a reflection of your family’s legacy, now reborn in contemporary grace.

That connection — between heritage and modernity — is what defines Shaza.

A Personal Experience: The Shaza Way

We invite you to experience private shopping or consultation sessions — either in-store or via video call. Our experts will understand your piece, suggest revival options, and guide you through design possibilities tailored to your preferences.

With every redesign, we honour the craftsmanship of the past while weaving your story into its future.

Because true luxury isn’t bought — it’s preserved.
