Yeah , Yeah.. we all know a picture is worth a thousand words..
The pictures I have below are worth, well !! a few thousand bucks !!!
Had gone to a friends place and she showed us her latest Sari and this picture was actually in the border. Guess Sari's have become very high tech these days!! The whole picture was actually embroidered using GOLD thread in the silk along the border !! We were pretty sure that there was enough gold in that sari to trip metal detectors, in the event our friend decided to wear that sari and go through airport security. The detail was just fantastic (I took the picture with my cell phone and that is why the resolution on the picture is not big (the picture is actually 3 1/2 feet by 2 1/2 feet).
There were little peacocks and roses on the small border which I could capture with my cell phone just to show the detail..
This peacock is 2 inches by 2 1/2 inches actual size.
Computerized gold sari's !!! What next ?
