Banjara pouch

I love textiles as much as I love beads!!  I have been hoarding a collection of these Banjara textiles for years.  It's time to share........at least a few!  The Banjara, are an ethnic group composed of semi-nomadic tribes found throughout the Indian subcontinent. The embroidery is organic and sophisticated at the same time!     This is a statement piece for sure!!!
