The Art of Kashmiri Aari Embroidery:
This garment showcases authentic Kashida needlework, a celebrated art form originating from the Kashmir valley. Known locally as Aari or crewel embroidery, it is distinguished by the immense precision of a continuous hook-needle chain stitch. The technique creates a raised, beautifully embossed thread-work texture that is rich to the touch and renowned worldwide for its unrivaled beauty.
