TAPESTRY INDIAN JARI HAND WORK (Queen)(59" x 45")

tunning and exquisite floor or wall tapestry from Jaipur, India, made with stunning patchwork from Rajasthan! This tapestry is particularly unique and rare because of the sheer volume of difficult Zardosi, Salma and sequin embroidery!

Patchwork tapestries are valued on the age, quality and quantity of the patches themselves, and this work incorporates old patches from expensive antique tapestry that are overflowing with dazzling handwork! Zardosi is an ancient method of embroidery that uses thick gold and silver thread made by twisting gold wire over silk thread. This tapestry incorporates patches in resplendent and vibrant shades that are criss-crossed with expert Zardosi embroidery !

The backside is lined with thick cotton that protects the delicate embroidery and bead work on the front side!

Hang this remarkable and rare tapestry up on the wall to add a dose of dramatic style and culture to any room! Your friends and you will marvel at the hand work involved, and wonder where each individual patch has come from, and what story it may tell!

This piece is handcrafted by craftspeople that have been practicing this ancient patchwork tradition for centuries!!! This type of patchwork tapestry is very difficult to make. Cheaper patchworks have simpler and few patches that are matched in no particular order, but in this tapestry you can see the amount of labor that is required to piece together varying patches into beautiful designs!

If you're looking for something truly unique and different, something unusual and special, beautiful and radiant with the stories of the past, and the stories of India, than make this work of art a part of your home!
