Balochi Embroidery

Passing from generation to generation, Balochi embroidery is one of the ancient traditional handicrafts. The exclusive design is a mixture of tiny mirrors, appealing colors of fabric, and patterns with colorful threads. The needlework mostly covering the front of dresses or shirts, the cuffs of pants and sleeves, and also on the pockets.

Handcrafting an embroidered Balochi dress takes more than two months and as you can guess it costs a lot. Surprisingly, women artisans who make these Balochi cloths do not use any diagram, they all use their own creative minds, and that’s why the design and patterns are unique for each dress.

The popularity of Baloch needlework products became an opportunity for local Baloch women to be independent in making money from their handicrafts. These creative artisans produced a wide range of new products like accessories, handbags, and even home decoration items like cushions using traditional Balochi needlework.
