Kutch embroidery is that of variegated architectural designs and motifs including the Banni or ‘Heer Bharat’. Heer means silk threads. The Banni or Heer Bharat embroidery originates in Gujarat.
Artisans use the Heer Bharat with a mirror in the center to enhance their embroidery work. Green, Indigo, Ivory, Deep red, Black, Yellow and off White are the primary colors used in Kutch embroidery.
Moreover, romantic motifs, human figurines, as well as Persian and Mughal arts inspired by animals also influence this embroidery style.
