Kasuti Abharan Dancing Deer (Silver) Necklace (4)

Sangai is the dancing deer. But interestingly it is not really the deer dancing, its the terrain, the moistness in the soil that when tread by the light footed steps of the nimble deer, to the observer it gives an effect of the deer dancing in all joy. 

It is these deer that are intricately hand embroidered in the Kasuti art form. The pendant also has a pair of little beads of silver sewn onto the pendant. 

This neckpiece enjoys a journey through our quaint clusters of Bagalkot district and Dharwad where the fabric is handwoven and is hand embroidered on. KaleNele works with a NGO dedicated to the upliftment of women who come from distressed backgrounds. These women are trained to develop a skill to help them enjoy a sustainable livelihood. They embroider with meticulous attention, achieving such beauty. This piece is received in our studio where our skilled kaarigars execute this neckwear with utmost perfection based on the design that is so well thought through.

Your purchase helps us support these groups of traditional weavers and the craftspeople of our land.
