TRADITIONAL INDIAN HAND EMBROIDERY I HANDCRAFT OF INDIA I VOCAL FOR LOCAL

Описание: Indian embroidery is the traditional art of decorating fabric with needle and thread, often enriched with mirrors, beads, metal wires, and sequins to create intricate surfaces that are as much cultural record as ornament. It varies dramatically by region, with each area developing its own stitches, motifs, and materials tied to local history, climate, and community identity. Materials: Cotton, silk, muslin, organza, chiffon, and khadi are common base fabrics, while threads range from cotton and silk to metallic gold and silver (zari, zardozi); mirrors, beads, shells, and sequins add relief and shine. These combinations allow both everyday and luxury textiles to be produced from the same basic techniques. Stitches and techniques: Indian styles use running and darning stitches, satin stitch, chain stitch (including aari work with a hooked needle), couching for metal threads, cross-stitch, and quilting-like running stitches in kantha and similar forms. The choice of stitch shapes the texture, density, and drape of the finished piece
