While most of the "shisha" or mirror work textiles we carry in the store are antique, it is nice to see that there is an effort to continue such a beautiful and intricate art.
We have many of the gorgeous antique textile pillows starting at $128.
The article mentions super pricey bags made from the antique textiles. I've had a few starlets purchase handfuls of the clutches and bags CaraMiya designed and had made from reclaimed textiles. They said they loved being able to spend $38 or $165 and the person receiving the gift assumed they had received a $2000 bag.
Lucky for you we have a few clutches left made out of the old dancing skirts..
My favorite are the bags made from a mix of old Indian mirrorwork, Uzbek suzanis, and Afghan fabrics. The bags range in price from $150-$185, but definitely worth it as each one is completely unique.
Repurposing old textiles like this allows you to carry beautifully hand made art wherever you go.
See you soon.
