Product : Elegant, soft, hand-woven cotton Khadi cotton with small fringes.

Khadi is a handspun and handwoven cloth, a technique which creates a fine and soft textile.

Our throws have a gorgeous soft, and heavy texture. They are woven by a community of women in northern India. Perfect for decoration, on a bed or sofa or even as a shawl.

Craft: Khadi is handmade in homes across Indian, using cotton, silk or wool yarn spun on a wheel, or "charkha". It is woven in an environmentally friendly way, using few resources such as water or electricity; it is strong and durable. Khadi is a unique Indian fabric, valued not only because it is handmade, but also for its cultural significance.

This textile tradition was revived by Mahatma Gandhi, who saw the fabric as a tool to bring financial independence to Indians across the countryside who would practice this craft at home. In his own words: “Hand-spinning is designed to put millions of rupees in the hands of the poor villagers.”

"The spinning wheel represents to me the hope of the masses. The masses lost their freedom, such as it was, with the loss of the Charkha. The Charkha supplemented the agriculture of the villagers and gave it dignity. "


In detail: 100% cotton, handwoven. Woven with threads in off-white, pale yellow, black, with a band of purple or pink. 140 x 220cm
