This handmade Egyptian Black Cat decoration features traditional embroidery techniques, making it an elegant and charming addition to your Christmas decor.
These Indian style decorations are made using the traditional method of zardozi embroidery. Its graceful design and expert craftsmanship make it the perfect addition to your decoration collection.
Made by St Nicolas, who for over 30 years have worked with a small Christian charity in Thailand that helps disadvantaged rural women find work in their community, rather than being forced to leave home to work in a factory. Today, some 200 skilled women work at home sewing decorations, and many of them have been doing so for more than 10 years.
Materials: Soft velvet fabric, featuring beadwork and metallic thread
Dimensions: 10cm H plus hanging loop
