Women of Barmer
The Social Work Research Centre of Dhanau, a small village in the Barmer district of western Rajasthan, works with 300 women artisans who earn income from their needlework.
Barmer Applique
Barmer applique was traditionally sewn on bedspreads of black or brown bases. Motifs were almost entirely inspired by nature: trees, leaves, flowers and animals. Women in six villages in Rajasthan produce these appliques. An elaborate bedspread may take nearly a month to complete.

What Our Customers Are Saying
"fast shipping and delivery, easy to deal with, thanks."
"Absolutely beautiful product at a great price. Also -- fair trade, which is really important. Beautiful website, prompt delivery, nice e-mails -- and great internet shopping experience. Highly recommend!."
"I purchased a quilt and love it. It has the look of some of the pricier boutique pieces (Kerry Cassill and John Robshaw) but was so much more affordable. It also came quickly, was easy to track and is oh so soft. High marks."
"Wonderful, warm, beautifully made quilt! It will be enjoyed for many years to come. I don't even need the electric blanket anymore." |
