Kutch Embroideries: Handwoven shawl with tie-and-dye and hand embroidery

This product demonstrates the many community ties in a traditional product: the Vankar weaver makes the hand woven shawl, the Khatri dyer gets it tied and dyed, and the woman who has commissioned the shawl does the embroidery and joinery. In the case of a Rabari shawl order as here, the raw material of wool is also supplied by the person commissioning the product.
