The Mehrab (गुब्बा) is a distinct feature in Kashmiri craftsmanship, typically used in woodwork, textiles, and architecture. Its design, inspired by Islamic and Persian influences, consists of an arch or semi-circular motif that has deep cultural significance. The Mehrab is often found in the embellishment of doors, windows, and ceilings, reflecting the region’s historical blend of art and architecture. In textiles, it appears as part of the traditional patterns in Kashmiri embroidery, especially in carpets, shawls, and crewel work. Its elegant form symbolizes both spirituality and artistry, making it a timeless representation of Kashmiri culture. As a result, the Mehrab (गुब्बा) has become synonymous with intricate, detailed craftsmanship and a symbol of beauty and heritage.
