Tribal Embroidery — Slim Format

exquisitely embellished handicraft

Tribal embroidery from the Kutch area of Gujarat in India is renowned for its stunning designs patterned on the magical colours of vegetable-dyed fabric. This language of needle and thread tells many a story of a rich and diverse cultural heritage. The medium of patchwork is intricately adorned with sparkling chain-stitched metallic thread, colourful mirror-encrusted embroidery, brilliant sequins, beads and even small shells. Our journals are graced with the timeless beauty of this ancient handicraft and vibrant art form. They are hand-stitched with open-back spines, the lithographed embroidery embellished with gold foil.
