Details

Pacific blue alternates with white on this handcrafted cotton shawl to evoke dawn flowers. Aftab works in the ancient Rajasthani dabu print technique to craft a beautiful shawl. Printing blocks are dipped in a mixture of mud, which is stamped onto the cloth to create the motifs. When dry, the fabric is dipped in a bath of indigo dye, thus dabu is known as a mud resist print.

Because of their handcrafted nature, no two dabu prints are ever identical.

"PERFECT IN EVERYWAY"

Gorgeous cotton shawl. I love the length and width so much! Its the perfect size to wrap myself covering the parts of me that get a chill. [Most other shawls are much shorter and half as wide.] ALSO, I LOVE the mesh-like bag it came in - beautiful! I like this bag so much more than the bags my purchases usually come. I never keep those bags. THIS ONE ILL KEEP! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

"Great summer dress"

This is a very cool and comfortable summer dress! It also has that wonderful luxury, pockets! The dress does run large based on US sizing.

"Beautiful Tunic"

I am calling this a tunic instead of a dress, because on me its just too short. That said, the colors are beautiful and I love the fabric. I cant wait to wear it with black leggings. Ive already tried it on and it fits perfectly. I am very happy with this tunic!

"One of my favorite pieces"

I wasnt sure I would wear this much when I ordered it. Im not a dress-wearer per se. As it turned out, I wouldnt actually wear it as a dress because its very thin and lightweight. But this has become one of my go-tos as a coverup before or after a shower, stepping outside early in the morning to water plants, or even as a nightgown. Loose and non-binding, cool cotton in a very pretty print and shell buttons.

"delighted with this shirt"

The fabric is very fine weight cotton. It washes up nicely and needs very little ironing. The fit is accurate. A good buy.
