Hi friends, mirror work also known as Shisha work is a very Integral part of Kutch work.
I have incorporated this in a blouse for the first time. How do you all like it?
Mirror work is known to originate from Iran and was introduced to India during the Mughal era. it is extremely common in states of Rajasthan, Gujarat and Haryana where Chanya cholis embellished with mirror work is a common sight.It enhances the beauty of the fabric and draws attention to the intricate works of embroidery.
Given its rich look, it is also extremely easy to stich. Even such a simple design on the edge of the blouse could drastically impact the elegance and appearance of the fabric.
