Zardozi Resham Embroidered Wall Hanging. A stunning piece of handcrafted opulence, this exquisite wall hanging is indeed a lovely wall accessory. Zardozi is a form of embroidery that was brought to India from Persia by the Mughals. Its literal translation, “zar” meaning gold and “dozi” meaning embroidery, refers to the process of using metallic-bound threads to sew embellishment on to various fabrics. Creating this piece of intricate craft is a long drawn process. Initially, the design is drawn on a tracing sheet with a fabric placed under it and holes are made along the traced pattern using a needle. The design imprinted fabric is tightly stretched over a wooden frame to give the cloth a uniform tension. The artisans sit around this frame and use a crochet-like needle that is fixed to a wooden stick called “Ari” to carry out the embroidery. In most cases, the raw material to make original Zardozi threads is an alloy of gold and silver. This delicate alloy wire is made by melting ingots that are pressed through perforated steel sheets.
