Leather Traditional
Feel Like An Indian Princess With Traditional Embroidered Mojaris
Ranging from handbags, to Mojaris, Kolhapuris and Jootis - India has a long tradition when it comes to leather crafts. Interestingly, most of these handcrafted items originate in Rajasthan, Karnataka & Punjab. Handcrafted ethnic footwear produced in India popularly known as Mojari is made up of vegetable tanned leather. This eco friendly option in shoes originated from Jaipur and Jodhpur, and is in fact a forte of Rajasthani Handicrafts. There is no doubt of the fact that these traditional embroidered mojaris are an important part of Indian ethnic dresses and provides the royal touch to a man’s attire.
Though, several Indian crafts have withered away with time, traditional embroidered mojaris have managed to create a niche for itself in the global bazaar. In this respect the roles of United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Footwear Design & Development Institute (FDDI) deserve a special mention. FDDI has stepped forward to organize training for the artisans to upgrade their expertise, offer design inputs and help out the artisans to master the art of contemporization by blending ethnicity with latest fashion dictums. Indian Traditional mojaris in their contemporary avatar have strongly made a mark in the global fashion market. A variety of design combined with originality of the Indian artisans is best reflected in the extensive range of products catering to the diverse groups. Of late, the traditional Indian Mojaris have undergone a make over with the introduction of custom design, new patterns, left -right differentiation, change in stitching methods and sole adhesion processes. The overwhelming response of the artisans to the technological revolution has been instrumental in the modernization and marketability of the mojaris in domestic and international markets.
Mojari which is a closed shoe with an extended curled toe having an open look from behind - is sure to enchant all. The regular Mojari is either pointed or rounded. The different varieties of Mojaris available are gol-panja or Round Toe, salem shahi (Pointed Toe) and chota-panja (Small Toe). The production of the heavily traditional embroidered mojaris dates back to the royal era of Kings and Queens. During those days mojaris were embroidered with real gold and silver threads, and were embellished with valuable pearls and gems. But with changing times and fashion, artificial materials, beads, bells etc soon took over and Mojaries are now being made of cow, buffalo, or camel leather soles. The upper part of the mojaris is made up of leather or simply textile. Both the parts are pasted together and are stitched by white cotton threads. Mojaris are then embellished with brass nails, mirrors, cowries’ shells, bells and ceramic beads.
Some traditional embroidered mojaris are made with bright and ornate threads for beautification. The design can range from a complicated appliqué involving embroidery, punches, weaves to a simple cut out shape from any material like leather or textile. Slip-on jooties, sandals and slippers are some of the updated and modernized versions of Mojaris. Dictated by technological improvement, cost effectiveness and market demand, non leather is now, being used for Mojaris production. The Mojaris are also done on customized basis to meet the requirement of the fashion houses.
The traditional skills when combined with contemporary colors and designs create nothing but sheer magic and this is best reflected in Indian traditional embroidered mojaris. In a nutshell Indian Mojaris are all set to give a royal look to the Indian male.
