About the Artwork +
This elegant rectangular panel showcases Pakko embroidery, a traditional craft of the Sodha Rajput, Meghwal, and related communities of Kutch, celebrated for its dense, raised stitching and its flowing floral compositions. A single Tree of Life, set within an arched niche, brings together the botanical grace and patient artistry of the tradition.
The name Pakko means “solid,” and it describes both the look and the durability of the work. Each design is first sketched out, traditionally in mud, and then outlined in chain stitch. The interiors are packed with dense buttonhole and satin stitch variations, which give the motifs a slightly raised, embossed quality. The motifs are generally floral and geometric, and the work is often enriched with small mirrors.
The Tree of Life is an enduring emblem of growth, abundance and continuity, and here it rises from a small base at the foot of a cusped arch. From a central trunk, slender branches sweep outward in graceful, scrolling curves, each ending in a rounded blossom. The blooms are layered rosettes in lilac and mauve with orange centres, set among leaves in green and orange. Every stem and curl is traced in dark chain-stitch outline, so the tree reads crisply against its ground. Within the arch, the field is a warm salmon-orange. The area above the arch is worked in olive green with a fine dotted texture, which frames the niche in a calm, deep tone.
The palette is warm and autumnal. Salmon and orange hold the central field, lilac and mauve provide the cool accent of the flowers, and olive green and dark brown give depth and definition to the arch.
Beneath the niche, a lattice band closes the composition, and a narrow diamond-lattice border with squared corner blocks in orange and green encloses the whole arch. A wide outer border of tiny florets in orange, green and lilac, flecked with small mirrors, surrounds it. The panel is finished in a pink edge and mounted on a dark olive-brown cloth.
