Kalaga is a handicraft of Burmese ( officially Myanmar ) origin. <\/p>\n<p>Kalaga is a Burmese word meaning curtain, but the Burmese call it shwe gyi <span style=\"letter-spacing: var(--the7-base-letter-spacing);text-transform: var(--the7-base-text-transform)\">do, meaning golden thread embroidery. These handicrafts are made using the shwe gyi sewing technique. <\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: var(--the7-base-letter-spacing);text-transform: var(--the7-base-text-transform)\">This art form appeared during the Konbaung dynasty in the mid-19th century and reached its peak during the reign of Mindon Min, when velvet became popular in court circles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In typical Kalaga handicrafts, the padded figures are cut out of a variety of textiles and then sewn onto a background, usually red or black, to create a meticulously crafted figural scene, traditionally from a classic Burmese play such as the Ramayana or the Jataka. <span style=\"letter-spacing: var(--the7-base-letter-spacing);text-transform: var(--the7-base-text-transform)\">The shapes are sewn with various metallic or traditional threads<\/span> <span style=\"letter-spacing: var(--the7-base-letter-spacing);text-transform: var(--the7-base-text-transform)\">and enriched with sequins, beads, glass beads and other metallic ornaments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Washing and care instructions:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Leave the cleaning to a professional.
