Etsy - ScaramangaTrading Large Recycled Sari Star Christmas Decoration
Description
Gorgeous large hand-stitched sari recycled Christmas decoration. Perfect for trees, walls & anywhere that needs a pop of colour. Each star is handmade from small off-cuts of recycled sari material by women in the historic fort city of Jaisalmer at the edge of the Thar desert in Rajasthan, India. They are sewn by women working at home using vintage treadle Singer sewing machines. Our supplier Laxmi has been working with women from the local community for the last 30 years. It is very rare for women from the city to work outside their homes. His work helps to supplement their household income. Each piece is unique & will usually have several types of sari sewn together to make a decoration that can be used on a tree, strung together or just hung somewhere to give a small space a pop of colour. The stars are roughly cut & sewn together by hand. The edges will not be perfectly cut, may have loose fibres & cotton stuff visible. No two stars will ever be the same. We will try to send the colour/pattern that's closest to the one you have requested. Large Recycled Sari Star Christmas Decoration
