Pair of Princely Gold Thread Zardozi Court Shoes, Northern India, 19th century Certainly made for an Indian maharaja, these shoes are densely embroidered over a blue velvet base with raised floral patterns in thick gold thread and gold spangles – the spangles are particularly fine and detailed. This type of work is known as zardozi whereby raised gold embroidery was added to velvet, probably was introduced by the Portuguese. Many Indian royal houses commissioned zardozi embroiderers to embellish jackets, shoes, umbrellas and other articles with this work that were to be worn and used in the court. The zardozi embroiderers typically were Muslim men. c - Michael Backman Ltd #tokreeshop #inspiration #indianhistory #zardozi #handembroidery
