Authentic ikat manufacturing process is long and rich like its 6,000 year history. Our expert artisans in Central Asia with a mastery of resist-dyeing technique perform 37 steps over two months hand-dyeing and hand-weaving each fabric pattern. Even after thousands of years practicing, no ikat apparel has been made identical. So for centuries, ikat fabrics were a commodity like gold, only affordable for the upper class.

Still unaffordable, aspirational, and occasional.
