Mubarik'S Kashmir Creations

You can find Mubarik'S Kashmir Creations at A-22, Green Park, which is right near the local church. The shop is a small place but it is packed with goods that come from Kashmir. We have rugs piled up on the floor and shawls stacked on the shelves. The air in here always smells a bit like wool and wood. We spend most of our days unfolding heavy carpets for visitors to look at and then rolling them back up again once they leave. It is slow and physical work. During the colder months, the shop gets more crowded as people come in looking for something warm to wear. We often sit and drink tea with the people who stop by, whether they buy anything or not. This business is something we have done for a long time, and we know the history of the patterns and the materials we sell. The space is tight, so we have to be very organized with how we store everything. We do not have a fancy catalog or a modern showroom with bright spotlights. Most of our customers are locals who have been coming to us for years or travelers who happened to see the shop while visiting the church. We just try to show the items as they are without making any big claims. (238 words)
