ARTISANAL NOTE

The Bharti style is inspired by the joy life may bring and is named after Bharti, one of the artisans of social enterprise Saheli Women. Handcrafted in various ikat patterns and colours, each piece carries creativity, craftsmanship and elegance.

Ikat weaving - meaning 'to tie' - is a complex process of 37 steps whereby vibrantly dyed threads are handwoven into cloths by families in Southern India. Its origins trace back to different regions in Asia and celebrated in this exclusive design.

We hope that you feel the craftsmanship and love that is woven into every piece.
