St. Nicolas Edgar Allan Poe Ornament

Product description

This ornament of author Edgar Allen Poe features Poe holding a copy of The Raven — one of his most well-known works — while the titular raven perches on his shoulder. 

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.
