The wall-hanging you see on this page has been handpicked to
go into the latter category. It comprises of a foundation of gorgeous red
velvet. The same has been superimposed luxuriant zardozi, a technique of
embroidery that is both ancient and unique.A work of art as powerful as this would make your guests stop dead in their tracks and function as an amazing conversation-starter.
Jewel wall Hanging |
From a tall, slender vase, the kind that would probably have
been used to adorn the Mughal court, emerges a shock of beauteous foliage. The
velvet had been stretched on a wooden stand, and a needle has been used to work
- with both hands - the statement gold string onto the fabric. Note the
plethora of sequins and semi-precious gemstones that have been incorporated
into the complex embroidery, zooming in on which would allow you to truly
appreciate the skill and labour that have gone into the finished piece.
