This book is a thorough ethnographic field research conducted over a period of twenty years. It delves into the variations of art fostered in the Hunza Valley, from0woodwork to embroidery, by taking into account the geographical and historical0links to Central Asia and Kashmir, hence, exploring the amalgamation of cultures that enrich the work. The author?s interviews of master craftspeople, who are on the verge of disappearing, along with the correct indigenous terminology, help enhance the distinct cultures of that region.
