What makes this runner distinctive?
It is a bold patchwork of pink, gold and green embroidered trims with touches of orange, all framed by a deep pink border. The warm, bright mix and the gold trims give it a rich, joyful feel, and the panels catch the light as you move around the table.
What setting does it suit?
The strong pinks bring energy to white, cream or wooden tables. Pair it with brass, marigolds or simple white plates for a bright spread, and it can just as easily lift a plain everyday table.
How is Kambadiya work done?
Small pieces of fabric are cut, arranged and stitched together into a patchwork, then decorated with hand embroidery along the joins and across the panels. This runner is pure cotton and is made by the Keshav embroidery cooperative in Barmer.
Can I get it in a different size?
Customisation is available at an additional cost. The standard runner measures 14 x 60 inches, and because each one is pieced by hand, the patches on a custom piece will also be its own mix.
Can I put hot dishes directly on it?
It is better to use a trivet or a mat under hot pans and serving dishes. The embroidered panels are raised and textured, so they are not a flat, heat-resistant surface, and spills are easier to deal with when they do not soak in.
