Andraab specializes in the finest textiles and hand embroideries. Embroidery
is the technique of working designs in threads of silk, cotton, gilt
silver and gold wire on a woven cloth with a needle.
All our products are hand woven and hand embroidered with great attention
paid to workmanship and quality. We use various fabric bases, including
cashmere, silk and blends of fabrics to produce one-of-a kind Bed Spreads,
Wall Hangings, Throws, Shawls, Stoles, Scarves and Jackets.
Andraab draws inspiration from traditional patterns and contemporary
trends. In the early 15th century, the arts of weaving and hand embroidery
traveled from Persia to the Northern part of India, later flourishing
in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. Inherently possessing a Persian character,
our embroidery patterns are intricate in nature and elegant in style.
These complex patterns require great skill and mastery, and can take
months to create. |
