The community traces their association with this art to three centuries ago. It is also known as the Kalamkari of Gujarat. It translates to “behind the mother goddess”. These Pachedis are an expression of the divine energy of the mother goddess. When the people of the Vaghari community were barred from entering the temples, they made their own shrines with various depictions of the Mother Goddess on the cloth.This item is available for prepaid orders only.
