ETHNIC HOBO Bag with RABARI & KANTHA Work

Keeping the rich handwork tradition of India alive, The Living Craft brings you the unique collection of Hobo style handbags that boasts of "Rabari" embroidery work with "Kantha" Stitches. Defined by the Rabari community residing in Kutch, this variety of embroidery is known for the use of mirrors in various size and shapes. The variety of stitching styles defined in this embroidery has made the tradition of Kutch Rabari embroidery famous across the world. Along with mirrors, the chain stitch method used to outline the garments decoratively has given this style a unique and beautiful edge over various others in the league. Kantha stitch is basically the ‘running’ stitch, and is very simple. Traditionally this embroidery was used for quilts, dhotis and sarees, but over a period of time it has evolved and made its way right into the heart of Indian fashion
