Explore the enchanting realm of Indian artistry with this exquisite Set of Four Antique Hand-Embroidered Textiles set up for your wall decoration. Four different wall frames for the price of one! Originating from Rajasthan, these remarkable textiles are hand-embroidered with intricate detailing, showcasing bright and vivid colors, mostly yellows, dark blue blacks and reds, as well as mesmerizing mirrored accents. Each piece features captivating nature and animal themes, reflecting the rich folk art traditions of the region.
Originally used as large seating cushions during ceremonies, these antique textiles hold a captivating history. The wall frames not only protect and preserve the textiles but also offer versatile display options. Experiment with different wall art layouts by combining the four frames together or arranging them separately. Create visually stunning compositions in a long line or follow your personal taste and position each frame horizontally or vertically.
The wall decoration frames themselves boast a sophisticated touch, with a thick bronze-black color that complements the vibrant textiles.
India's natural resources play a vital role in the creation of these artful textiles. Each region of India, with its distinct geographical climate, contributes to specific techniques and signatures. The textiles are crafted using natural dyes and plant fibers, showcasing motifs inspired by nature, animals, and plants in unique patterns and arrangements.
Acquired in India during the 1960s, these textiles date back to the late 20th century, holding a rich history and cultural significance. This remarkable collection of Indian art, Southeast Asian art, and Asian art is a testament to the diverse artistic traditions and mastery found within this region.
