She loved the Udaipur Collection but wanted something special. I had a Persian document that had been fascinating me for quite a while.

Hundred and eleven colours of silk thread in vintage Persian shades were used to create a decorative base and embellished with bugle beads, hand-cut sequins, crystals and pearls."
