Gorgeous! Traditional Indian fabrics are just so beautiful. I'd love to have a quilt made from them.

No dear i do not think that this zari work is avialable in US. As this is an ancient of India only. There are people selling Indian clothes with designer zari work sarees but they are very coastly there.

Have a look

This is exquisite. I have only seen small pieces and some similar embroidery work with metallic on special wedding clothes at an Indian wedding.

It was a pretty spectacle. The groom came on an elephant! To a hotel! I thought I was in a Disney movie.



Yeah i think ur familiar with indian zari work. i have made it on cushion, But if u can find in the near Indian store i think they are selling it at the price of 200-250$ , The reason behind it , that this zari work are very attractive and new to USA People which touches there heart,That is why Indians are making good bucks from it. But i think u can get direct from Indian people not form the Indian who are staying there
