Paisley_shawl: (Paisley: A town in Scotland), is a European version of a Shawl in wool or silk, featuring the Persian Buta motif. Inspired by contemporary Kashmir shawls, the town of Paisley first pioneered its manufacturing for the European market in the 18th century, thus becoming synonymous to the motif.
