Basanti Ikat Scarf

Our Basanti Ikat Scarf is hand-woven using 100% cotton in a beautiful Ikat weave design. The scarves are woven by master weavers in Eastern India and many artisans are involved in each aspect of the process–from spinning and tie-dyeing the fine cotton yarn to setting the loom, weaving, and hand-braiding the tassels. No electricity is used at any stage of production, making these fair trade cotton scarves an eco-friendly work of art that will last for generations. Dimensions: 27" x 78".

Made in India

"Sevya" is a Sanskrit word that means "caring through service"; caring for humanity and for the environment we live in. Sevya is dedicated to preserving the indigenous art forms and cultures of India by supporting the artisan communities who uphold these traditions. They work directly with artisan communities throughout India to develop contemporary styles of apparel & accessories that showcase their traditional and eco-friendly methods of handcraft--including hand-loom, block-printing, tie-dye, and embroidery. Our collection of fair trade scarves, shawls, apparel, and jewelry are made with the finest natural materials using traditional craft techniques, which are passed down from generation to generation. By providing a sustainable livelihood to these artisan communities, we help to ensure that these artisans, and their craft traditions, can continue to flourish. Sevya is a member of the Fair Trade Federation.
