Yayla Jacket - Cotton Block Print - Indigo Starry Sky

A robe inspired jacket that can be worn open. Effortless to wear at home or out in the world - a simple cut you can live in. Crafted from organic cotton featuring the remarkable artistry of Ajrakh hand block printing.

The process of making an Ajrakh is a long one, involving between thirteen and twenty distinct steps. The many processes of scouring, washing, printing, dyeing, and final washing can take up to three weeks to complete. Much of the beauty and depth of Ajrakh cloth comes from the intricacy of the imprint that is left by the artisan’s hand. Slight variations are to be celebrated.
