Decorative embroidered panels are a centuries-old textile art form that combines intricate craftsmanship with cultural symbolism and visual storytelling. Created by hand using techniques like satin stitch or chain stitch, these panels transform fabric into richly textured, pictorial surfaces with floral motifs, geometric patterns, or historical narratives. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, the panels serve functional and ceremonial purposes, adorning garments, furniture, or ritual spaces, while signaling social status or regional identity. Today, this tradition continues to evolve as artists experiment with mixed media and abstract designs, moving embroidery into a medium for contemporary conceptual expression.
