This magnificent embroidery, preserved from the 1990s comes from the Kutch region of Gujarat in India. The art form became a vocation for women of Kutch which became a generational art with the skills taught from mother to daughter. The signature effect of the colorful embroidery sparkles when small mirrors called abhle are sewn over the designs. A lot of the Kutch embroidery is influenced by various architectural designs and motifs. The embroidered cloths are used for festive occasions and to decorate deities, therefore animals and figures of Indian Gods and Goddesses find a prominent place in the design.
