Introducing our new Bandhani table runners.

This cloth is the result of a design collaboration between Maiwa and master Bandhani artisans from the Kachchh Desert of Gujarat, Western India. The handwoven cotton cloth becomes a canvas—where every motif, every line, is brought to life through the intricate translation of thousands of hand-tied knots. There’s a quiet poetry in seeing a design reimagined in this way—each dot a gesture of time, care, and tradition.

HANDWOVEN SHEETS

We exist to create beautiful artisan cloth. The idea of creating handwoven naturally dyed bedding sheets to sleep under...well it sounded absolutely dreamy.

Traditional embroidery has always had a role in the world. It has always been a visual statement of skill. It has always been an expression of beauty. It has always worked to transform a plain piece of cloth into something extraordinary.

CARAVAN BLANKETS

30% OFF

Nights in the desert can be cold. When the sun goes down and the heat of the day leaves the earth, everything goes quiet. The air can be chilly, but nomadic pastoralists keep themselves warm with these robust and dramatic wool blankets.
