Vintage Rabari Wool Shawl & Throw. Mirror Work and Embroidered 0773

Each of these Rabari shawls has been made with such love and attention. These are from a tribe in Gujarat, India where the most exuberant and beautiful embroidery comes from. These are the result of a cooperation between three villages, one weaves, one dyes and the other embroiders. These were worn in the village of the embroiderers. These are no longer produced and have not been for some time. They have become much more difficult to find in India.

The shawls are 100% wool apart from the decoration. They are toasty warm and truly fetching.

The wool is dyed once and then tie dyed again to make the all over design.

This item is probably 30 or 40 years old, at least. It is in excellent condition.
These are great shawls for cool weather or striking as a wall hanging or throw.
