Weave and region are read from the cloth and are awaiting confirmation from AHA.

There is no card payment on this site yet. Adding to the bag composes a WhatsApp enquiry to AHA — which is how this category actually buys and sells in Bharat.

The weave

Indigo grounds with rust florals are the standard vocabulary of block printing in western Bharat. The border on the dupatta is printed from a separate, longer block than the field — you can see the join if you follow the edge.

No Handloom Mark, Silk Mark or GI status is recorded for this piece. AHA has not confirmed one, so none is claimed.

Fabric & care
  • First wash separately in cold salted water to set the indigo.
  • Dry in shade, inside out.
  • Expect the indigo to soften over the first year. It is meant to.
