About this piece
Black wool, red diamonds and a scatter of small suns.
Makers in Gujarat, India, produced this wedding shawl in wool in the 20th century. Embroidered shawls are commonly worn or gifted at weddings in Gujarat, with bright thread work as a sign of celebration. The long black cloth is covered with fine stitched lattice patterns, and a central line of small flower-like medallions runs down the length, with two red diamond shapes among them. A bright border of yellow and red embroidery trims both ends, finished with short fringe.
About 110 inches long and 41 wide. Drape it over a chair or across a bed.
