The word Embroidery comes from the Anglo-Saxon word for "edge", but the technique itself was
being used long before that. The term was first applied to decoratively stitched borders on medieval church
vestments. But over time it came to cover all stitched decoration on any textile fabric. It is an art of hand
weaving which is done with the help of needle. It also known as needlework.
Embroidery is the thread that connects women through all the
centuries of our history, no matter how much our lifestyles
change. We have always shared that passion, or at times, the
necessity.
Embroidery has become the most elegant and enriching part of the craft heritage of India. The needlework tradition dates
back to 2300-1500 BC and has been richly inherited by various regions, each having special style and an individual
inspiration.
Each state here is specialist in its own kind of embroidery like, Kashmiri embroidered saris vividly reflects the exuberance of
nature and is characterized by paisley motifs and lovely landscapes, while Chamba (Himachal Pradesh) embroidery is
inspired by the miniature paintings of the Mughal rule, depicting courtly life and mythological characters.
These vast range of embroidered sarees has been emerged from the use of a variety of threads. Like the floss silk thread used
to create motifs of flowers is the main highlight of 'phulkari' embroidery on these Indian ethnic saris, popular in Punjab. 'Chikan'
work of Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) is characterized by the delicate embroidery in white threads either in cotton or in silk. 'Zardozi' of
Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh) is worked in gold thread and the threads from the old saree borders have created the
beautiful 'Kantha ' work of West Bengal.
