  • Man's robe (choga); wool embroidered with silk. This type of elaborate embroidery originally evolved as an alternative to woven patterns of Kashmir shawls, but also came to be used on robes and sashes. Figurative embroidery such as this was done for both Sikh and Muslim patrons in the 19th Century. The figures on some embroidered robes of this type can be identified as Sikh by their distinctive beards and turbans, while other examples show scenes from Persian legend. (en)
