Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -'Phulkari' is the craft of the land of five rivers, which shows the creativity of artisans and craftsmen in making use of vibrant and colorful designs. Phulkari embroidery is one of the most fascinating expressions of the Punjabi folk art. Phulkari has been propelled to limelight in recent years due to globalization and rising demand from the Punjabi diaspora. The womenfolk are mostly involved in the embroidery.
