Custom Ethnic Shawl in Mulberry Silk with Mirror Work for Ethnic Boutiques and Concept Stores

Custom Ethnic Shawl — Mulberry Silk with Mirror Work

We make ethnic shawl built around nordic fair isle patterning, produced in Mulberry Silk with mirror work. On ethnic 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 200 pieces per style per colour and ship to Jakarta or Port Klang.

The failures here are predictable: trim and fringe that loosens after the first wash, and unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare SNI or SIRIM documentation per destination 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 Jakarta or Port Klang 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

Can you match a fabric or a physical sample?
