Description

This beautiful piece of work measuring 15.5” by 15.5” has mirrors stitched in small round shapes 82 in all. Some are in the shape of letter L and others a letter I but a pattern or certain element does not exist. The main color is purple then a red and blue. Flowers and grass appear. It can be used to catch the play of light as a wall decoration, under glass on a small table, or wherever your imagination is. Or just as it is as a pillow cover. This is called Shisheh or Abhla Bharat embroidery and some believe originated in the 17th Century in India or Iran during the Mogul times. One can tell by looking at this it took many hours to complete. And carried out with a meticulously and artistic talent. You pay shipping .
