Ashrafi
ASHRAFI - MOHUR MAGNIFICENCE
The Ashrafi is a coin or mohur in Persian, marked the introduction of gold coinage or ‘ginni’ in the Indian monetary system introduced by Sher Shah Suri. A symbol of prosperity, this was transposed in resplendent metallic threads, weaving gilded brocades in pure kadhwa as a political, economic and cultural symbolism of our rich heritage. At Warp ‘n Weft, we use the Ashrafi buta as a juxtaposition of antiquity in urbanity.
