Chakla, wall hanging
The art of beadwork, called ‘Moti Guthana’ in Gujarati, has been practiced for centuries but became widespread during the 19th century. It is popular
in the Saurashtra and Kutch region of Gujarat. Beads of stone are stitched in embroidery by passing a needle through the hole of each bead according to the patterns and designs visualized. In this art, the most important aspects are the choice of colors of beads, the number of beads in sequence, and color combinations to make the pattern and design attractive. Motifs are often related to nature, birds and animals, trees, flowers, and creepers.
