753 Shekhawati Bishnoi Shawl Rajasthan Textile Art

Beautiful Bishnoi Odhana from Rajasthan. Rare rendition of patterns created with a sense of naivete that shines through the placement of the motifs randomly across the field. 

Hand spun wool, hand woven and hand embroidered and probably natural dyes.

Probably from the Bishnoi community in the Shekhawat region.

Age unknown but estimated to be from the 1960s-1970s

Some parts seem to have been completed later.
