Silk Road Bedspread - King
 |
Silk Road Bedspread - King Textile historians speculate that silk embroidery was introduced to the world via the Silk Road, the famous overland trade route that stretched from the eastern shores of the Mediterranean, crossing Persia and India before ending in Peking. Some of the most striking silk embroidered textiles originated in the Indian Subcontinent, a region that historically hosted bustling bazaars, teeming with people and caravans from the Middle East and beyond. These ancient bazaars were found all along the Silk Road and served as cross-cultural marketplaces for goods procured from Agra all the way to Peking. With their bold color palette and curvilinear motifs, our Silk Embroidered Indian Bedspreads are reproductions of authentic silk textiles from ancient India. Silk Embroidered Indian Bedspread - King Material: Resham silk, mirrors King – 102 in. x 116 in. Dry Clean Only; Hand-embroidered by native South Asian artisans. Available in a variety of colors. Additional photographs available upon request.
