J. P. Shawls

If you are looking for us, we are over at J.P Vohra Industries in the Katra Ahluwalia Pathar Market. Being near the Golden Temple means the area is always full of life and people, which we really like. J. P. Shawls has been a part of this market for a long time. Our space is filled with stacks of fabric and the smell of wool. It’s not a sterile shop; it’s a place where we actually work and handle the goods. You’ll see shawls piled up on tables and shelves everywhere. We don't spend money on fancy displays or bright lights. We just let the shawls speak for themselves. People come in from the street, sometimes tourists and sometimes locals who have been buying from us for years. We talk to everyone the same way. It’s a bit crowded and noisy with the market sounds coming in, but that’s just how it is here. Our hands are usually busy folding or showing different patterns to customers. We aren't some big brand you see on TV. We’re just a family-run kind of place that knows its fabrics. Sometimes we have a glass of tea with a regular customer and just chat about how the market is doing. It’s a simple life, focused on quality weaving and being part of the community here by the temple.
