From the remote villages of the eastern Himalayas comes this ever so loving cruelty free, non-violent silk. Caring for our world and concern for defenceless tiny worms, highly skilled artisans ingeniously retrieve this awesome silk yarn without boiling or killing them and spin the magic of creating ethical, natural fabrics that are far too rare for everyone to own.
Just enough for the world to admire, hand spun, hand loomed and vegetable dyed by artisan families living on organic farms, they take up to three weeks to create just a single piece of this invaluable fabric.
Gifts of compassion, for women who refuse to compromise on ethics and aesthetics!

Eco friendly and carbon neutral, add substance to your stature.
Situated in Koraput district of Odisha, Kotpad hand wovens are a vegetable dyed fabric hand loomed by the tribal weavers of Kotapad in cotton and silk, down generations. Families in unlit hamlets painstakingly construct this unique fabric by spinning yarn, extracting color dyes from roots of trees and then looming yardage in designs that are typical to their tradition. As the dyes used are virtually from a single source, the color-ways remain limited. Yet, towards this cause the products are all natural, eco friendly and carbon neutral.
