They are made using organic kala cotton - indigenous to Kutch and one of the few genetically pure cotton species remaining in India! The cotton is hand-picked, hand spun and hand dyed using natural dyes before being handwoven into these beautiful textiles, encouraging a sustainable way of preserving agriculture and artisan livelihoods in Kutch.
