Phulkari, meaning ‘floral work,’ is an ancient craft deeply rooted in Punjab’s agricultural landscape. Its motifs go beyond flowers, drawing inspiration from grain plumes, cotton, acacia, mustard, and birds—reflecting the region’s vibrant life and culture.This piece is embroidered by Manjit Kaur from Maloya village, who leads Ruhan, a self-help group of 40 women. She reimagines traditional Phulkari motifs as custom placement embroidery on our hand-spun, handwoven khadi cotton fabric from Udyog Bharti, a collective supporting sustainable textile production.
