The designs are typical of this type often referred to as Gajeri which refers to the technique of weaving a brocade type weave with the dyed warps hanging loose on the back and brought to the front when necessary to make the design. This example has very bold graphic design and wonderful natural dye colours throughout. These are often woven in narrow strips and then stitched together. This example is of an unusually large size.
