About Ahir embroidery
.
Ahir embroidery is one of the most beautiful embroidery. Ahir is a community in Kutch's desert area. The traditional local word is ‘thasso’, used for Ahir embroidery. The word suggests confidence. Ahir works are large and colourful. The craftswomen fill colourful mirrors surrounded by yellow and white chain stitch. The combination of these elements creates a vibrant effect. They embroider designs like flowers, birds, and animals.
Ahir embroidery is open to innovation. Traditional elements, such as abstract buttas with appealing colours, are used in an authentic way.
The core Ahir values are respected, as evident in the use of specific stitches for specific functions. A small, round saankdi or chain stitch is used to outline the buttis. Ahir, the community, follows Krishna, the Gopa culture. Ahir women wear a full-embroidered skirt and kanjari. The unique embroidery of the community, the balance of tradition with modern concepts, is done by hand with only needles and threads.
