Linen Jamdani Dune Robe

Wandering Silk's signature Dune Robes are one-size overlays, crafted from a single length of fabric and designed to make our beautiful textiles into highly wearable pieces which drape, layer and flow beautifully.

This style is made from a very light hand spun and hand woven linen embellished with supplementary weft jamdani motifs and dyed using natural indigo. The fabric is very soft and makes a perfect cover up for warm weather.

Story Behind Design:

This piece is the result of a lengthy process, whereby fibres are carefully hand spun and hand woven by rural Bengali weavers.

While the threads are still on the loom, highly talented artisans weave the jamdani extra weft motifs into the fabric in one the most labour intensive forms of embellishment, once patronised by Mughal royalty.

Any variations or irregularities are part of the design and inherent to the production process.
