Popular throughout Europe in the nineteenth century, the moon shawl first appeared in the Kashmiri industry around 1680 and features a central moon-shaped medallion with quarter medallions at the four corners, a design taken from Turkish carpets. This shawl is woven with goat’s fleece, often known as \"cashmere\" after Kashmir, the region of northwestern India where this wool was commonly used.
