Known for their harmony with nature and distinct cultural identity, the Todas express their heritage through a sacred art form — Toda Embroidery, locally called Pukhoor. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted by Toda women using red and black woolen threads on white cotton cloth, representing the elements of earth, fire, and purity. The geometric patterns — inspired by buffalo horns, temple roofs, and nature’s symmetry — carry deep cultural meanings, often passed down through generations without written patterns.
