Literati Bookshop and Café invites you to a special evening with renowned textile scholar Frank Ames, celebrating the publication of his landmark new book, PASHMINA JEWELS. This important work completes a remarkable trilogy representing Ames’s lifelong exploration of the history, design, and symbolism of the Kashmir shawl across three centuries. His earlier books — The Kashmir Shawl and Its Indo-French Influence (1997) and Woven Masterpieces of Sikh Influence (2010) — are widely regarded as essential references for collectors, museums, and cultural institutions worldwide. Join us for a fascinating talk exploring the artistic brilliance, cultural heritage, and historical journey of one of the world’s most celebrated textiles. Following the talk, enjoy a special show-and-tell session — guests are warmly invited to bring old or rare Indian shawls or fabrics for discussion.

Where: Literati Bookshop and Café, E/1-282, Gaura Vaddo, Calangute, Bardez, Goa

When: 28 February 2026, 6:30 pm RSVP: bo...@literati-goa.com | WhatsApp +91 7447437768
