Supremely elegant and sophisticated black velvet clutch, embellished with genuine lapis lazuli and garnets, intricately hand embroidered by master artisans in Agra, India. Certain to become a modern heirloom! A classic design, enlivened by a touch of blue.
Beautiful 3D embroidery using silver colored metallic threads, both matte and shiny finish, and genuine lapis lazuli beads. Sparkles like a perfect little jewel box.
Modern update with the use of a gray colored silver, in two finishes - matte and shiny, producing a color that is close to gunmetal gray. The petals of each flower are shiny and the outline is matte.
Zardozi is from the Persian and means "gold thread" . It is an elaborate art of multidimensional embroidery using gold and silver threads and embellished with precious stones. Zardozi had its origins in Persia and was introduced into India by the ruling Mughals in the early 16th century. It was used mainly to adorn the robes of the royal families. The city of Agra, home of the Taj Mahal, was the seat of the Mughal Empire and it remains a center for traditional handicrafts that had flourished under the Mughal patronage. Today, over 15,000 craftsmen still practice the craft in the city of Agra, making elaborate zardozi purses, belts, tapestries, jewelry boxes and garments.
