<p>[QUOTE="pentiques, post: 3458, member: 171"]Actually I have had several that were completely hand pieced including the swirl portions. I agree most often the pieced ones are only pieced in the borders but there are some at are pieced in the body. I sold one just last year, many pieces of irregular shapes sewn together, the border was embroidered and pieced. I agree that Kashmir shawls were cashmere but when they started making them in Europe silk and wool was used. The cashmere still command some big prices. I was quick to say mid 1800s perhaps 1870 would have been or accurate.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
