Description
The piece brings to life the embroidery and wool applique traditions of the rabari community of Gujarat, in India. It has been inspired by the patterns on a vintage rabari trousseau bag and is a reminder of a life lived to the fullest.
The Rabaris know how to embrace life and live in the moment, no matter what the situation is, and it reflects in their craft. In the harsh landscape of the kutch region, the ever graceful and joyous rabari women embroider their dreams on fabric using an unusual play of colorful threads and twinkling mirrors. It is a skill that is passed down from mothers to daughters. Several days of hard work and dedication have gone into the creation of this warm wool wrap. This embroidered desert melody is sure to steal your heart.
