The Indian Embroidery Art

Embroidery work can include other decorative materials such as metal strips, pearls, beads, quills, and sequins. In India, Embroidery work done on caps, hats, coats, handbags, blankets, dress shirts, denim, stockings, and T-shirts. But it is widely done on women outfits like sarees,salwar kameez,lehenga choli,kurtis and men’s ethnic outfits such as sherwanis,kurtas etc..
