An unusual south Indian cotton with a soft and silky handle, similar to sateen. A beautiful rich emerald green that has been hand dyed using an Indian Bandhani technique with dark pink, white and yellow detail.

Bandhani is a traditional tie-dye technique where the cloth is pinched with fingernails and bound in thread. This gives the fabric lots of dots of different colours.

Please note that some of the threads may still be on the reverse of the cloth, just give it shake, and they will fall off!

This cloth would make beautiful skirts, dresses, tops and shirts. It would also be suitable for lightweight curtains.

Indian handlooms are sometimes susceptible to irregularities in the weave due to their handmade nature, this is all part of their charm and are not classed as flaws.

All care is taken to ensure the accuracy of product colour, however, all screens/monitors are different.
