This vintage Indian mirror embroidery textile, crafted from cotton and floss, is a stunning example of traditional Indian handwork known as “shisha” or mirror embroidery. The piece features a symmetrical layout of concentric geometric patterns, intricately embellished with vibrant threadwork in earthy tones of rust, saffron, and olive, accented by small mirror insets that catch and reflect light.
