She explains the Chinese connections associated with Parsi embroidery, the intercultural mix in designs and motifs, and the rituals and occasions for which garas and jhablas (tunics) are worn. She describes the kors (borders) which were designed to match the inner embroidery of the garas.Video produced in collaboration with Parzor (The UNESCO Parsi Zoroastrian Project) |
