Cotton Zari Thread, For Textile Industry, Technique : Twisted

Zari is a metallic thread, used for weaving and embroidery. It was originally made of gold or silver, which is no longer the case. However, that hasn't lessened the beauty of this craft, where talented artisans use the metallic thread to embroider delicate, intricate designs on items ranging from clothes and jootis (slippers) to bags. Bhopal's cacophonic Chowk market, in the middle of the old city, is where you can find beautifully embroidered and beaded batuas (purses).
