Interesting information regarding mirror work-
- The baby embroidery was found back in Iran on the 17th, which was brought to India during the Mughal rule. It is known that a queen of the Mughals encouraged this industry.
- It began with decorating fabrics through reflective metal pieces like mica, tin or silver. Over time, pieces of glass began to be used. Thin bubbles of glass were blown for this purpose and have then been cut into small pieces. At present, the machine is made of glass with silver coating on the backside, readily available in stores for cutting of desired shapes and sizes and for decoration of fabrics. Sometimes mica or hand-blowing glass, is used as an alternative.
- Mirror embroidery is popular in South Asian countries, especially in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and China. Initially practiced only in Gujarat and Rajasthan, it is an art seen in many places of the country today.
- Dictation of the evil eye's reflection by removing the evil eye from the body of the watchman was partly responsible for the popularity of mirror work clothes in some areas.
