This "Border for head covering" (c. mid 20th century) by Kanbi, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a vibrant example of traditional Indian textile art. The border, crafted from fabric and embellished with intricate embroidery and mirrored glass, showcases the skilled craftsmanship of the Kanbi community. The repetitive geometric patterns, floral motifs, and the use of bright colors are hallmarks of this regional style, adding visual interest and a touch of cultural significance to the head covering.
