About Swat Handicrafts
Swat Handicrafts specializes in authentic Swati Woolen Shawls, the primary product of the region. We offer Islampuri and Pashmina shawls, hand-woven in Islampur village, known for its traditional weaving heritage. Our collection includes heavy woolen shawls for men in plain colors or with borders, and beautifully embroidered shawls for women featuring traditional Pashtun geometric patterns.
In addition to our signature shawls, we offer traditional Swati Caps (Topi) in woolen or embroidered styles, and cultural heritage items that represent the rich Gandhara and Pashtun heritage. Unlike mass-produced factory items, all our products are handmade by local artisans, weavers, and women working from home in the cottage industry tradition.
Each piece tells a story of generations of traditional craftsmanship, preserving the cultural heritage of Swat Valley while supporting local communities and artisans.
