Stained Glass Heart Embroidered Velvet

This magnificent velvet decoration features the Sacred Heart at its center and is inspired by a stained glass window from the Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Paris.

Created according to ethical values related to fair trade, this decoration is handmade using the traditional Indian embroidery method known as 'zardozi,' which means gold.

This embroidery originated in Persia and arrived in India in the 12th century. It is a highly skilled technique that traditionally used gold threads and jewels to embellish court robes. Today, zardozi work is a rare and respected craft, and your purchase helps support its continuity.

It was specially designed for the Sacred Heart of Montmartre.
