What does do-rukha mean and why is it rare?

Do-rukha means 'two faces' — the shawl is woven so both sides are equally finished, with no reverse. Very few weavers can keep both faces clean across a full shawl, which is why production is scarce.

Is each side a separate layer stitched together?

No — it is a single handwoven cloth, not two layers bonded. That is precisely the skill: one weave, two perfect faces, full pashmina softness with no added weight.

How should I care for a reversible shawl?

Exactly as any pure pashmina: dry-clean, muslin bag, cedar block, no pins. Alternate which face you wear outward to even out exposure over the years.

A do-rukha ('two-faced') pure pashmina shawl — ink on one side, ivory on the other, woven as a single reversible cloth with no wrong side. Do-rukha weaving is one of Kashmir's rarest loom skills: both faces must finish clean, which few weavers attempt. 100% Changthangi pashmina, handwoven in Srinagar, GI-certified — effectively two shawls in one.
