Antique Parsi Gara Hand Embroidered Dupatta
A rare heirloom of extraordinary craftsmanship, this Antique Parsi Gara Hand Embroidered Dupatta showcases one of the most intricate and revered embroidery traditions of the subcontinent.
Hand embroidered in the classic Parsi Gara technique, the dupatta features elaborate floral and botanical motifs rendered in exquisite detail. Using ultra-fine silk threads, artisans employ satin stitch and long-and-short stitch to create soft shading, depth, and fluid movement giving the embroidery a painterly, almost three-dimensional quality.
Set against a deep black base, the muted ivory and beige tones lend timeless elegance, allowing the embroidery to take center stage. Every motif is individually hand-worked, a process that requires months of dedicated craftsmanship, patience, and mastery placing Parsi Gara among the most expensive and collectible hand embroideries in the world.
This is not surface decoration but textile artistry, historically commissioned by Parsi families as treasured heirlooms and passed down through generations.
