| Hand embroidery is a time consuming art. The mountainous regions of Kashmir have nurtured specific embroidery stitches in local stylized picturesque depictions. The styles practiced in the Kashmir Valley include SOZNI, REZKAR, TILLA DORI work, crewel embroidery designs. The range of embroidered forms includes wraps, costumes, furnishing items and accessories. The designs and motifs in Valley embroidery are mainly of the natural flora and events of the valley along with depiction of scenes of processions of the nobility. The powerful impact of religiosity and ethnicity is distinctly visible in the visual imagery of the embroiderers. The equipment for embroidery varies with the demand of embroidery. Artist uses needle for silk embroidery and small crochet-hook-like instrument called "ari" to decorate the silk garments and the decorative objects with the chain stitch. An embroidered fabric is not an exclusive piece of skilled display of any individual embroiderer but the expertise of the several who worked on the piece following the trail of the sequence. Fundamentally, the embroidery styles of each of these states are regionally distinguished. The distributive character of these regional distinctions may be varied. Some of the embroidery styles elucidate the relationship between the people and their surroundings while others cover the historical events, cultural affiliations, migrations and the settlements. |
