Lot Description:An Antique Rabari Embroidery, Kutch, India, 19th Century
Rabari embroidery is done by Rabari communities of Kutch which are predominantly pastoral nomadic communities that rear cattle. The designs produced by them are bold and usually derived from mythology and daily lives. The outline on fabric is made in chain stitch and then filled closely using buttonhole single chain, herringbone stitches. Usually black colored base is used for Rabari embroideries.
