Description
The Craft Story
Brown and yellow — the colours of the earth and the sun, of mustard fields in winter, of sandalwood and turmeric — come together in this extraordinary Shibori Maheshwari silk dupatta in a combination that feels both deeply rooted in Indian tradition and effortlessly contemporary. From the ancient temple town of Maheshwar on the banks of the Narmada river, Maheshwari silk has been celebrated for over 300 years for its distinctive reversible border, fine texture, and extraordinary lightness. The Shibori tie-dye technique creates organic, cloud-like patterns in these warm, earthy tones — each piece entirely unique, each one a small work of art.
