These vintage gujrati hand embroidered patchwork tapestry wall hangings are a one
 of the rare types of tapestry wall hangings from India. These patches used to make these tapestry wall hangings are collected from the remote regions of Gujrat (state of India) and then travel all the way to different parts of the world after a few more enhansements and customisation to suit todays world's needs. We put the patches together and hand embroider further in a beautiful way and also line it with a fresh cloth (cotton/ Poly cotton) to help home decorate it the best possible way to give it a final form of a tapestry wall hanging. At times now even the tapestry wall hangings are made in the remote regions itself. The patches are around 10-50 years old. These patches are taken out from various apparel/ textiles products and then used to make the tapestry wall hangings. Need more information on how they are made, read the manufacturing process. These speciality tapestry wall hangings have irregularity in the patches and depict the wear and tear of time which are not their imperfections, infact are their real cost. The tapestry wall hangings also do have some stains on the patches depicting their authenticity. There is a little different variety of work and that varies from tapestry to tapestry hence some may just have cotton thread work. You can see the awesome intricate hand embrodiery done mainly with cotton threads. The embroderies are mainly done by females at home in remote areas. Each and every patch and their tapestry wall hanging is so unique and beautiful that it adds a totally new dimension to your home or office decor.
