Red velvet hearts are brimming with passion. Covered with glittering zardozi embroidery, beadwork and diminutive flowers, the handcrafted ornaments are luxurious. Parvez A. Warsi crafts the beautiful set of five to showcase traditional Indian arts.
Warsi includes a drawstring pouch; its colors may vary.
Warsi includes a drawstring pouch; its colors may vary.
Tiny Andean musicians adorn these ornaments by Margarita and Martha. Wrapped with colorful ribbons that emulate handloomed textiles, the bright candy canes feature diminutive dolls, zampoña panpipes crafted of reed and ribbon poinsettias.
Glittering zardozi embroidery creates mesmerizing spirals on deep red velvet. Applied by hand with glittering metallic zari threads, they adorn an heirloom Christmas stocking. Parvez A. Warsi stitches zari threads in sparkly green on a lovely crimson ornament lined in silk.
Rich ruby hues swirl into a breathtaking handcrafted design. Javier and Efrén create imaginative yet functional works, achieving an incredible clarity with their material, and each piece is unique. There could be the presence of random drop of red on some stems, to attest to the hand crafted nature of the process.
Because each piece is handmade, shape and size can vary slightly and tiny bubbles may appear within the glass. This exemplifies the hand-blown technique, making every piece a unique example of blown glass craftsmanship.

An artisan story card will be included with your purchase.
OR maybe this very beautiful
The "Volcano" collection glows with incandescent beauty. Radiant in fiery vermilion, this bowl's undulating shape brings a dynamic sense of aesthetics to the piece. Hints of yellow contribute to the illusion of molten lava and the vase is speckled with ashes.
The presence of air bubbles accentuates the nature of the traditional hand blown crafting process, making each piece unique.
