Pear Drops
Handwoven Cotton Stripe

A fruity thin striped cotton in peach pink and mustard yellow. Handwoven with Kala cotton.

Kala cotton is a purely rain fed cotton indigenous to the kachchh region of India. It is grown in a sustainable way due to the resilient nature of the plant, the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers are not needed. It forms a strong and coarse fibre that produces a uniquely textured cloth. 

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