The Venice Belt is a striking remake of a traditional sari belt using Gota Patti, an embroidery technique traditionally used in clothing for Mughal and Rajput royalty. Three sets of handsewn hook and eye closures make the belt adjustable in length, allowing it to be worn floating and high on the waist or lower on the hips in belt loops.
The Venice Belt features hand embroidery with copper thread (zari) on soft cotton velvet with a smooth, fine silk natural dye backside.

Gota Patti is a type of Indian embroidery that originated in Rajasthan, India. It uses the applique technique. Small pieces of zari ribbon are applied onto the fabric with the edges sewn down to create elaborate patterns. Gota embroidery is used extensively in South Asian wedding and formal clothes.
Handwork naturally results in variations. We cherish these nuances for their human touch.
