Among unique, world-wide known products, presenting pride and glory of Russia, a particular

place occupy shawls from an ancient town of Pavlovsky Posad.

Every year «Pavlovo Posad Shawl Manufactory» issues around 300 kinds of shawls,

kerchiefs, scarves, cache-nez, tablecloths of natural fibers: wool, cotton, silk. Recognition of

a high art and cultural value of our products is the fact that to the factory is given a title of a

folk art craft of Russia.

The work on every new product starts with a design. On the creation of designs labours a

group of gifted artists, from generation to generation passing ancient traditions and creating

new composition solutions. All prepared designs are considered and affirmed by Art Council,

to which are invited merited artists of the factory, representatives of the Minestry of Culture

and of the territorial art and expert Council on folk crafts of Moscow region.
