Custom Ethnic Pashmina-Style Shawl — Recycled Polyester (rPET) with Batik Wax-Resist Dyeing
We make ethnic pashmina-style shawl built around west african adinkra symbols, produced in Recycled Polyester (rPET) with batik wax-resist dyeing. On ethnic pashmina-style shawl the decision that matters most is hand feel against the neck, which decides whether it gets worn, so that is fixed in the tech pack before cloth is bought — not discovered on the first bulk lot. Programmes start at 500 pieces per style per colour and ship to Shanghai or Shenzhen.
The failures here are predictable: minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb, and a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare GB 18401 safety classification with GB/T 29862 fibre labelling so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the spring tourist season passes.

Care, packing and delivery
Each piece is folded, tissue-wrapped and packed to the ratio you specify, with barcodes and hangtags applied where the retail channel needs them. Care labelling follows the destination's rules. We ship to Shanghai or Shenzhen with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved specification on file so reorders reproduce the same cloth, the same shade and the same hand feel against the neck, which decides whether it gets worn.
FAQ
Do you ship to our forwarder?
Yes. We deliver to your nominated forwarder or quote landed cost under the agreed Incoterm.
Can you match a fabric or a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we match cloth weight, hand feel and shade, then confirm on a strike-off before bulk.
How do you control colour on reorders?
The approved lab dip and the bulk reference are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.
How long does sampling take?
A first sample takes 12 working days, and each revision about 3 days.
