A two-tone button up coat that can be worn open or closed. Great for layering up or down through all the seasons. Beautifully constructed with standing collar and two very useful large pockets.
Sewn from exquisite artisan cloth; naturally dyed, handwoven and handstitched. Natural indigo dyed yarns are woven into cloth with a slight texture in the warp and weft, then passed to another community of artisans to be stitched upon with a running kantha stitch. The resulting cloth asks for adoration and celebration of the craft and the skill of the artisans behind it.
