Featuring a beautiful flowing Bisht made of real sheep’s wool
Long ago the full-length Bisht was worn to protect its wearer from harsh desert conditions. Now it serves as a sign of elegance and high status. Men who wear the Bisht are viewed as a people of authority. It used to be said that a single Bisht was more valuable than all other garments in a man’s closet: largely due to its real gold “zara” embroidery, which takes between 80 and 120 hours to complete and requires four different tailors to perform specialized tasks. This hand-embroidering technique is a fading tradition, but you can help preserve the essence of it by owning this doll made in the traditional style.
Your doll comes with:
– A finely woven and lightweight Bisht designed to traditional specifications for real authenticity
– A gold-trimmed neckline, added to the Bisht to reflect a highly complex metal thread needlework technique that’s sure to impress
– Decorative golden color cords and tassels
Get this doll to add a touch of elegance to any room.
