Parsi Embroidery: An Intercultural Amalgam
From early history, textiles have woven together the tapestry of humanity. The Parsi Zoroastrians, now a tiny minority of under 65,000 individuals in India, have saved, in their cupboards and trunks, this proof of our world’s multicultural history. Complex roots and routes lie behind what we call “Parsi Embroidery” today.
