We created these pieces with the desire to wear handwoven cloth all year round. We’ve layered handloom, naturally dyed cotton with an insulating flannel core—stitched row by row.
This Maiwa piece is the perfect oversized shirt. The versatility of wearing it open or closed makes it a Maiwa favourite and a great layering piece. The Shimoga Shirt stays true to what we believe about timeless sustainable design; it's easily worn year round.
This playful yet elegant yarn is handmade by a group of women in a village in Bengal, India. The women developed this idea because they hand weave cloth and thought it would fun to incorporate sequins into their weaving process for shawls and saris.
These blankets are handwoven by master weavers of Kashmir Loom using handspun pashmina combed from the Changra goats that live in the high altitudes of Northern India.
Ajrakh is a traditional block printing technique. It is also one of our favourite ways to achieve pattern on cloth. For centuries, wooden blocks have been used to print eloquent geometric patterns on cotton. These patterns are timeless, revealing a remarkable play between figure and line.
These garments are sewn from exquisite artisan cloth; naturally dyed & handwoven by village artisans in India. By dyeing the threads before weaving, there is an added depth and variance to the colour that celebrates the handcraft of the dyers and weavers who created it.
We use natural dyes extensively in our own production. This is the best way to know how a dye behaves and see the changes that happen from harvest to harvest. Because we use the same dyes we sell, we can ensure that each package contains the best available dyestuff.
These shawls are handwoven by master weavers of Kashmir Loom using the softest pashmina, combed from the Changra goats that live in the high altitudes of Northern India.
