The Bagh is a specific type of Phulkari work. Phulkari literally means 'flower work' that is embroidered onto cloth in the style prevalent in that region. Phulkaris contain embroidered floral, geometric and angular motifs, scattered throughout the rough hand-woven khaddar base cloth. Traditionally, use of coarse khaddar fabric made it easy to count the yarn. The base khaddar cloth used in Western Punjab was finer than what was used in Central Punjab. The fabric was woven in widths, which were narrow, as the width of the loom was such.
These Bagh textiles are about 70-80 years old.
