Blue floral jewellery pouch

This bright blue jewellery pouch is embroidered with a floral design and has elements of Abhala mirror work, it closes with a drawstring and is fully lined. The outside fabric is hand woven cotton and the lining is market bought. Each pouch takes one whole day to embroider. The embroidery techniques used are over a thousand years old, they are based on the practises of the Kathiawadi desert nomads and are being kept alive by the Gujarati artisans of St Mary’s Mahila Shikshan Kendra, one of our fair trade partners in India.
