Hand Embroidered Kutch Dupatta

详情

It is rightly said that Gujarat has given India the greatest heritage in embroidery work and craft through its famous and versatile Kutch embroidery. The hub of the Kutch embroidery work is basically located in the regions of Kutch and Saurashtra wherein the local artisans churn out the most creative and exquisite designs. The tribal people, peasants and the womenfolk of that region have maintained their tradition, rich heritage and vibrant culture through their distinctive embroidery styles. The Kutch tradition of embroidery basically started off as a hobby amongst the women who would embroider an entire outfit for their daughter after the harvest season and thus gather enough garments for her marriage trousseau. From mirror and bead work to Abhala embroidery along with the usage of silk threads of bright colors, the Kutch embroidery basically ornate the entire fabric and embellishes it completely.
