Aari Embroidery
captures time
With a history spanning over 600 years, the Aari embroidery has captivated the imagination of kings, queens and contemporary enthusiasts. Originating in Kashmir, this technique is performed with a special needle, which is a long, fine, hooked implement. The needle, or Aari, is used to create a loop stitch pattern to craft a level of detail that would be impossible with other techniques. Artisans have, therefore, used Aari to stitch motifs inspired by Kashmir, a place where endless details can be found as far as the eyes can see.
