Chamba Rumal is a traditional form of embroidery originating from the Chamba region in Himachal Pradesh, India. The term "rumal" refers to handkerchief in Hindi, and Chamba Rumals are square pieces of cloth intricately embroidered with vibrant colors and fine detailing. This art form dates back to the 17th century and was historically associated with the Chamba School of Art, flourishing under the patronage of the rulers of the Chamba princely state. Typically created by women, Chamba Rumal embroidery features motifs inspired by nature, mythology, and religious themes. Common designs include depictions of flowers, animals, birds, and scenes from Hindu mythology. Today, Chamba Rumals are valued not only as functional handkerchiefs but also as decorative pieces, showcasing the rich cultural heritage and artistic skills of the region.
