Honouring the Centuries-Old Craft of Bandhini

Our silk pieces are patterned by hand in India using the bandhini technique, making each unique. This resist-dyeing method, tracing back thousands of years, produces a variety of intricate and unique patterns.

The beauty of bandhini lies in its imperfections. The hand-bandhini process involves skilled artisans who tie, stitch, fold, twist, or compress the fabric before dyeing it. Once the cloth is carefully tied or clamped, the dye creates results that retain the irregularities of the process and the human hand.
