Description :
An exceptional, vintage two-piece ensemble originating from the Balochistan region, showcasing striking tribal artisan craftsmanship. The set features a long-sleeved tunic top (gala) and a matching full-length maxi skirt, both crafted from heavy black cotton fabric. The tunic is heavily adorned across the entire front bodice, sleeve cuffs, and back yoke with intricate, multi-colored geometric hand embroidery in vibrant hues of magenta, orange, green, and yellow. It features traditional shisha (mirror-work) embellishments embedded within the needlework, providing a brilliant reflective quality. The matching skirt features a coordinating embroidered border along the hemline with sparse, delicate floral motifs scattered across the body. There are no brand, material, or size tags present. Based on cut and styling, it is estimated to fit a modern Women's Medium or Large. Please refer to the specific dimensions below for an accurate fit. Note: Mannequin used in photographs is for display purposes only and is not included in this lot. A beautiful example of global folk art and regional textiles, perfect for collectors, display, or statement wearable art.
