We’ve been busy behind the scenes working on our online shop and we’re delighted to present our limited range of stoles and dupattas. Each piece is delicately handwoven in Bhujodi village, Kutch, Gujarat, India, using the traditional craft technique of extra-weft weaving. In this intricate process an additional weft yarn is introduced with a shuttle to create patterns and motifs that have the delicate, dimensional appearance of embroidery.

The piece is woven with carefully dyed yarn on a handloom, bringing together skilled craftsmanship, traditional techniques, and the distinctive character of handwoven textiles. Each piece is unique and reflects the artistry of the weaver.
