#NBArtisans: Meet the women from Karnataka, that are tirelessly preserving an Art form of Navalgund- the hill of peacocks 🦚⛰
Shop pieces online- link in bio🌞
The Navalgund Dhurries are made in a small town of the same name in Karnataka🌞The weaving is done on a vertical loom locally called Khadav Magga 🌸
This is sometimes done with two women facing each other, which is a wonderful, social way to work! The designs are geometric, or sometimes animals, and peacocks as Navalgund or Navalgunda means 'Hill of Peacocks' 🦚🌻🦋
Farzana H. Sirsing and Akkamma K. Bozegar are currently overlooking the establishment. Only because of their enthusiasm and true love for the craft has saved this craft from extinction that would have been caused with lack of funding.
We travelled to Navalgund through the marigold fields that surround it, and met these inspiring women🌼
We are closely working together and creating these custom designs for No Borders and will continue designing more lovely work with them💗
