A unique hand shibori towel made in hand spun Kala (organic) cotton and dyed in natural indigo.
- Kala cotton is indigenous to Kachchh and by default organic, as the farmers do not use any pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. It is a purely rain fed crop that has a high tolerance for both disease and pests.
- Natural indigo is dyed in 100% fructose based fermentation.
- The Artisans we collaborate with work from home - their spinning wheel, loom and kitchen happen in the same space - equipment might extend to the porch or a roof terrace. Family members often work as a team in charge of different operations.
- Many grow their own food and co-exist with animals. These craft communities located in remote areas have some of the smallest carbon foot prints on the planet.
- This self sufficient model has never felt more inspiring or relevant as a model for living. To decentralize production during this Covid concerned time we have launched a line of home textiles - made in home studios for your home.
- Size : 99 X 152cm / 39" X 60".
