While the Kashmir region is known for its beauty and is usually associated with the famed Pashmina shawls, there are other crafts that chime with and radiate from Kashmir - floor coverings like Kaleens (carpets), Namdah, Gabba and Ari Rugs and Wagoo mats. These artefacts also form the backbone of Kashmir’s handicraft industry. This appears to be the main thematic concern and message of a brilliantly lucid and well-researched monograph, 'Floor Coverings from Kashmir: Kaleen carpets, Namdah, Gabba and Ari Rugs and Wagoo Mats' by Promil Pande.
