“Shakespeare\'s Malvolio” Embroidered Ornament - St. Nicolas/Zardozi
Malvolio is a fictional character in William Shakespeare\'s comedy Twelfth Night, or What You Will. His name means \"ill will\" in Italian, referencing his disagreeable nature. He is the vain, pompous, authoritarian steward of Olivia\'s household.
Approximately 6” high. Smoke- and Pet-Free Location.Zardozi Embroidery by St. Nicolas
St. Nicolas specializes in bespoke Christmas decorations. All their decorations are handmade, and the time taken to make each one is reflected in their unique quality. For 25 years St. Nicolas has worked with a small charity in Thailand that helps disadvantaged rural women find work in their community, rather than being forced to leave home to work in a factory. Today, some 200 skilled women work at home sewing these ornaments, and many of them have been doing so for more than 10 years.
Each St. Nicolas Ornament is made using the traditional method of zardozi embroidery. Zari (meaning gold) embroidery originated in Persia and reached India in the 12th century. It is a highly skilled embroidery technique that traditionally uses gold wires and jewels to embellish courtly robes. Zardozi work is a rare and respected craft, with skills passed down from generation to generation.
