This cropped jacket is crafted from a handwoven shawl. This shawl takes approximately 3 days to weave from a wool blend. After being woven, it has been then beautifully hand embroidered by our artisan team. This intricate embroidery is done using threads and tiny mirrors with the help of needles and tweezers.

The jacket has a round neck with embroidery in the front, on the shoulders and in the center of the back. The entire jacket is made from a single shawl and the sleeves are finished with tiny handmade pom-poms. It is open in the front and does not come with a lining.

This shawl has been sourced from Bhujodi Village in Bhuj, Gujarat where nomadic tribes hand weave shawls and blankets for their community. The "Vankars" are the weavers of Kutch who travelled from Rajasthan centuries ago picking up and spreading weaving and embroidery traditions along the way. This village is also known as the village of weavers because of the settlers and the songs of warp meeting weft that linger in the air.

Please note - this jacket does not have a lining and the embroidery threads are visible on the inside.

Please note: It takes minimum 1 week to embroider and make this item
