vistara parade beadwork bag

Vistara, (Sanskrit, noun, meaning: "expanse" or "spread,") represents the vastness of possibilities and the craftsmanship behind the design.

Product details: A whimsical interpretation of traditional Indian architecture and motifs, this cylindrical bag features charming mini palaces and geometric patterns on a white base. The detailed beadwork includes classic Gujarati design elements in warm reds and blues, crowned with a decorative border pattern. Handcrafted by artisans from Saurashtra using traditional Czech glass beads, this piece tells a story of India's architectural heritage through the language of dal-moti beadwork. The versatile size and distinctive shape make it an ideal companion for both special occasions and everyday use.

About the collection: Our beadwork collection is dedicated to the beadwork craft-form practiced by artisans in the villages across Gujarat. Gujarati (dal-moti) beadwork is a languishing craft form that has been cherished for generations. Using Czech glass beads, skilled artisans from the villages of Saurashtra regions handcraft intricate Torans—decorative door hangings that symbolize prosperity and welcome. Each piece is a labor of love, reflecting the precision and creativity passed down through generations.

Each piece is painstakingly handcrafted with the highest quality plant based leathers to bring you a fresh take on the craft. As we celebrate these handmade treasures, we honor the artisans keeping this delicate tradition alive.
