Dehleez | Ikat Print & Zardozi - The Layered Jaali Arch

A study in architectural form and textile craftsmanship, The Layered Jaali Arch brings together the character of handloom Ikat cotton and the intricate artistry of traditional Indian embroidery.

Set against a softly textured Ikat textile, three nested arches are outlined in hand-embroidered Zardozi and Dabka work, evoking the layered thresholds and ornamental jaali forms found in traditional Indian architecture. The interplay of linear embroidery, metallic detail and the textile’s distinctive pattern creates a composition that feels both rooted in heritage and quietly contemporary.

Presented in a sleek black frame, this textile artwork brings understated ornamentation to considered interiors - whether displayed as a standalone accent or paired with complementary pieces from the Dehleez collection.

Inspired by the layered arches and intricately detailed thresholds of traditional Indian architecture, The Layered Jaali Arch reinterprets these enduring forms through the language of textile and embroidery. The rhythm of Ikat provides a distinctive backdrop for the fine metallic contours of Zardozi and Dabka, creating a balance between architectural structure and handcrafted detail.
