Nandhini Aari works

Advantages of aari :

*Advantage of Aari is that

it is very small and so intricate embroidery is possible.

*Beads, sequins or small spirals of gold or silver wire may also be used in between to add sparkle to the work.

*The whole process is done very fast, while maintaining perfect tension of the thread.

*Several artisans may work on a single piece together. This relieves the tedium of a big piece of work, which may take a month to finish.

*It also allows slightly less experienced artisans to learn by working on the borders of month.

*he work of the Aari craftsman ends here.

*Once aari work is done on the fabric, the process of converting this piece of work into a finished product is done by other units. For making a garment, the fabric is sent to a tailoring unit or in the case of a sari or scarf it may need edging or surface finishing.
