The nomadic (Rabari) tribes of Gujarat
are known for their Kathi work, a type of
embroidery, which combines chain stitch
along with appliqué work embellished
with small mirrors. As Kathi work is done
on fabrics that are dyed in bright colours,
the garments and items made out are unique
and display the folk flavour of rural Gujarat.
The womenfolk practice this craft. |
