The Gulzar Sheen: Gaddi is woven in Banarasi silk, its vermilion base patterned with delicate buti motifs that shimmer like scattered blossoms across a garden. Each motif is rendered in fine metallic thread, requiring a steady rhythm of hand and loom to achieve the even spread of design. The border is finished with scalloped zari embroidery, stitched in gentle arcs that frame the cushion with a jewel-like edge.

This gaddi draws inspiration from the floral gardens that once adorned Mughal courts, where every cushion was more than comfort, it was part of the setting’s poetry. Resting on carved furniture or low diwans, it adds quiet ceremony to the act of gathering, turning a simple seat into a moment of grandeur. The harmony of color, motif, and finish ensures it holds its place as both heritage and ornament.
