Kanakavalli is delighted to commission a collective from Taanbaan, a brand that celebrates sustainability and craft, showcasing their exquisite handloom saris and blouse fabrics. Working with organic, rain-fed cotton hand-spun on the traditional charkha, the brand showcases a contemporary rendering of traditional skills. With a focus on research, revival and development of local cotton varieties, Taanbaan supports the livelihoods of farmers, spinners, weavers and dyers in rural India.
The exquisite handspun cotton saris and blouse fabrics in our curation feature traditional jamdani weave techniques as well as classic geometric patterns and motifs, and are distinguished by their unique texture and beauty. Look out for a palette ranging from muted, earthy tones to more vibrant shades, with embellishments in contrast hues as well as in silver and gold metallic thread.
Committed to the preservation of craft, Taanbaan's saris beautifully marry age-old hand-weaving techniques with a contemporary aesthetic, making them truly timeless.
