This embroidered vintage Gujarat toran door banner from India features a repeating geometric pattern of finely embroidered silk in a combination of soft, muted earthy colors and a rich, ruby red typical of the region with small mirrors throughout. The second image conveys the scale and how these textiles can be layered for impact (other torans in the image are also available, sold separately).
This delicate textile has a rip in one corner and tack holes from hanging on the wall. The base fabric is a charcoal grey, with soft mustard, cream, green, plum, peach, and faded indigo floss. Appears to be all hand-stitched.

This textile has a rip in one corner and tack holes from hanging on the wall. Item is visibly faded, distressed, and worn typical of age and consistent with most of the Indian wall hangings in our collection, which distinguishes them from newer, mass-produced textiles made for the tourist and import markets. Most items show some discoloration, missing patches of embroidery or mirrors, and faint water stains in some cases. less
