What matters when shipping shawls and scarves

Shawls are very light and fold small, so they are charged on actual weight and many fit in a small parcel; ask for boxes to be removed and combine them with abayas or hijabs to spread shipping cost.

Fabric and colour

Read the silk, wool or cotton content on the product page, since the fabric sets price and feel, and cotton and viscose suit the heat. Screen colour differs from real colour, so ask for a photo at the warehouse and for count and colours to be checked before closing.

Wool, silk or viscose

A wool shawl is warm but needs gentle washing, silk is soft and glossy but is affected by water and perfume, and viscose and imitation pashmina are cheaper and crease less. Read the description for the percentage of wool or silk, because the word pashmina alone does not tell you the material.

Dimensions and how to wear it

Common sizes are about 70×180 cm for a shawl and 100×200 for a large wrap. Ask about the fringe and whether it is stitched or left loose, because long fringes can tangle in the wash. A square scarf folds into a triangle for the head and shoulders.

Common mistakes when ordering shawls

Some buy a pure silk shawl and wash it in hot water so it loses its feel, or confuse a shawl with a scarf so the dimensions differ. Ask about care before buying and choose a colour-fast option for white and light shades. A shawl is very light, so add it to a clothing parcel.
