VEKU'S THROW

Size : 246 cm x 129 cm

Veku's Throw is a product of Nila's collaboration with Vekuvolu Dozo, an artisan-entrepreneur from Dimapur, Nagaland. Veku has turned her heritage into a successful independent studio, employing women weavers from the region. Veku's throw has been crafted in her studio.

Using pure organic cotton, the throw has been designed, woven and stitched in Nagaland. The yarn used for weaving has been dyed in natural indigo vats in Sawantwadi, Maharashtra. The deep hue of the indigo indicates multiple dips, which requires an experienced hand.

Since the traditional loin looms used in the region are in the short-width format (backstrap loom), three panels have been stitched together to create the piece.

The austere design of the throw is offset by the welcoming, earthy weave of the fabric. Veku's throw is a wonderful addition to your living spaces, keeping you warm on cooler evenings. Or simply draped over the edge of a sofa the Throw is a versatile accessory made for a sense of simple comfort.

 Composition and care: 

100% handwoven cotton   

Hand wash separately in cold water 

The rich natural colour of the Indigo yarn may fade slightly over time, with exposure to direct sunlight. The textile may carry subtle irregularities – this is a part of the beauty of handmade textiles.
