Soof Embroidery is a traditional counted-thread embroidery practiced by women of the Meghwal community in the Kutch region of Gujarat. It is created by counting the weave of the fabric rather than drawing patterns, resulting in precise geometric designs. The embroidery is usually worked with silk threads on handwoven cotton fabric, often without any mirrors. Soof motifs are inspired by nature, including flowers, buds and abstract forms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the base of the composition rests an angular, orange and magenta pedestal. From this foundation rises a wide, complex geometric body made up of interlocking diamond and triangular modules. This lower section expands horizontally with vibrant segments of mustard yellow, deep orange and magenta, creating a wide-set base.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDirectly above this base, the composition tapers slightly into a central handle. This section cleverly integrates two stylized peacocks standing with their backs to each other. Their bodies are rendered in rich orange and magenta satin-stitch bands that curve outward at the top to form the birds' heads. This dual-peacock pillar frames a central ladder of yellow micro-triangles. On either side, their bodies are formed by interlocking diamonds of yellow, orange and purple, similar to the geometric design at the base. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCrowning the entire piece is a large, multi-tiered diamond silhouette rendered in brilliant yellow, which represents the radiant flame of the lamp. The flame tapers sharply to a single point at the top, finished with a subtle crest of magenta accents that draws the eye upward.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe textile showcases the absolute mastery of the Soof school through its dense, multi-directional satin stitching. The threads are laid down so smoothly and tightly that they give the flat surface a distinct, volumetric texture. Depending on how the light hits the panel, the various directions of the stitches catch the light differently, making the silk threads shimmer like glossy ribbons against the matte cotton backdrop. Symmetrical geometric \"arms\" and traditional soof points extend outward along the edges, giving the entire motif a dynamic, expanding energy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Daya Ben","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48987336835286,"sku":null,"price":1500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1194\/1498\/files\/1._Peacock_Lamp_in_Soof_Embroidery_by_Daya_Ben.png?v=1783588112","url":"https:\/\/www.memeraki.com\/products\/peacock-lamp-in-soof-embroidery-by-daya-ben","provider":"Memeraki Retail and Tech Pvt Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
