What Is a Kashmiri Kani Cap?

A Kani cap is a beautifully crafted headpiece made from Kani Shawls. The shawl is cut into smaller portions to carve out Kani caps out of appropriate sizes. These caps are handmade in different sizes, starting from 21-24 inches for adults. 

The Kani Cap features intricate and dense patterns in floral or natural designs — echoing the gardens of Kashmir and the aesthetic of royal courts or Mughal-era textiles. The patterns are woven, not printed or embroidered. 

Kani caps usually have a cotton lining on the inside. The price of the Kani cap varies based on the quality of the Kani Shawl used.

The Kani topi is a symbol of refined taste with a snug-fitting and rounded shape. It's suitable for namaz or other kinds of prayers, as a winter accessory, or for any event.
