Worked entirely by hand across its full surface, rows of kantha running stitch bind two layers together in the ancient tradition of the craft - each line placed by a single artisan, each pass of thread unrepeatable. The front is a single length of upcycled underprint cotton in rich teal-green, its surface alive with an all-over wavy ripple stripe pattern - organic, hand-printed, slightly irregular, the stripes shifting through teal, aqua, sage-olive and soft grey-white. Beneath the surface, thin diagonal streaks of coral-pink, golden-ochre and rust drift through the cloth - ghost marks from countless woodblock printings laid down before it on the tables of Jaipur. The overall effect is of water in motion, layered and luminous, entirely one of a kind.
The reverse is Jasper - a deep blue-green teal - in a 45% cotton / 55% linen blend, its smooth face a quiet counterpoint to the rippled depth of the front. The kantha stitch reads clearly on both sides, a mark of the hand that made it.
